What are workplace health screenings?
The Business Health Matters screening service delivers affordable physical and mental health screenings to employees of Lancashire-based businesses. Delivered by qualified gym and leisure centre staff, Workplace Health Screenings are available to SMEs that experience lower levels of productivity as a result of poor employee health. The service specifically supports businesses with employees aged 50+ but welcomes employees of all ages to participate in the screening process.
The screenings draw upon expertise from specialist partners, including a physical screening tool developed by UCLan School of Medicine and a mental health element supported by Lancashire Mind. Together, these screenings identify conditions which can lead to poor health in later life.
Based on the results of the screenings, employees are provided with basic wellbeing support packages and businesses are offered tailored interventions so that they can support their employees in improving their overall wellbeing and benefit from a healthier and more resilient team.
