Pre-Employment Medicals IN NEWCASTLE

Pre-Employment Medicals IN NEWCASTLE

Pre-employment medicals are one of the most common occupational health services requested at our Newcastle clinic. The North East’s employment base includes offshore energy, construction, healthcare, public sector, and port and logistics operations along the Tyne and Wear. Many of these sectors require fitness confirmation before a new starter begins work.

A pre-employment medical at PMC Newcastle includes a review of role-relevant medical history, physical examination where required, and a written report assessing fitness for the specific position. Reports are produced in a format that meets standard HR and occupational health requirements.

Common reasons Newcastle employers request pre-employment medicals:

  • Offshore and onshore energy sector roles with safety-critical requirements.
  • Construction and civil engineering positions requiring fitness for physical work.
  • NHS and healthcare roles with patient contact or manual handling requirements.
  • Port operations and logistics roles with physical and safety demands.

Same-day appointments are available, and we issue reports after the assessment.

 

Return to Work and FITNESS-FOR-WORK ASSESSMENTS

Return to Work and FITNESS-FOR-WORK ASSESSMENTS

A return-to-work assessment is carried out when an employee has been absent due to illness or injury and is ready to come back. It establishes whether they are fit to return, on what terms, and whether any temporary or permanent adjustments are appropriate.

An employer requests a fitness-for-work assessment when they need an independent clinical view of whether an existing employee can carry out their current role. This most commonly arises when an employee has a long-term condition, has been involved in a workplace incident, or when their capacity to work has changed significantly.

Both assessments produce a written report covering the fitness-for-work determination, any recommended adjustments, and the clinical reasoning. The report supports the employer’s HR and management process but does not make employment decisions.

Our Newcastle GPs produce reports to the standards expected by HR teams, employment solicitors, and, where relevant, Employment Tribunal proceedings.

    Offshore and Industrial Sector OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH

    Private Medical Clinic Newcastle

    Offshore and Industrial Sector OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH

    The North East has a long history in energy, offshore operations, and heavy industry. Occupational health requirements in these sectors go beyond the standard pre-employment medical: specific roles require periodic health surveillance, fitness-for-task assessments, and documentation that meets industry-specific regulatory standards.

    Our Newcastle clinic can carry out occupational health assessments for workers in offshore and onshore energy, construction, civil engineering, and port operations. GMC-registered GPs carry out assessments and provide written reports that meet employer, HR, and, where applicable, industry regulatory requirements.

    We can also carry out COSHH-related health surveillance for employees exposed to hazardous substances at work, and assessments for roles with specific fitness or physical demands.

    Employers in the energy sector and their supply chains can contact us directly to discuss their occupational health requirements. We work with both large operators and smaller contractors in the North East.
