Sorry to post this so late on a Friday afternoon but I was wondering if anyone had a list of health screening requirements (either via statute, ACOP or just good practice). Im currently devising the system and conscious that I dont want to miss anything.

Jason,
If you post the areas you have already identified you are more likely to have others add to your list.

It depends on the activities performed in your organisation.
e.g. if using vibrating equipment, hand/arm/whole body vibration screening
If exposed to medical/human waste, Hepatitis vaccination and testing.
If working with or close to noisy equipment, Audiometric screening
If working with hazardous substances/vapours/dusts, skin monitoring/lung function tests.
This is only intended as an intitial guide and not an exhaustive list. Best thing is to look for an Occupational Health provider in your area and ask them what they provide and why. You should then be able to identify what, if anything, is right for your organisation.
