Health Surveillance Screening

Some health and safety regulations require employers to provide health surveillance for their employees.

Health surveillance is about systematically watching out for early signs of work-related ill health in employees exposed to certain risks. The starting point is your risk assessment. Through this, you should have found out the health hazards in your workplace.

(Ref: Understanding health surveillance at work HSE INDG304 09/11)
