Employee Fitness to Work

An Employee Fitness to Work Medical, also known as a fit note, is a document that confirms your assessment and states that you have partially or fully recovered from the health issues that had been affecting your work. It assures your employer that your health issues no longer pose a risk to yourself or others in the workplace and that you are fit to start or return to work. The letter may also provide guidance to your employer on resuming your work duties on a gradual basis if necessary.

Please note that our Employee Fitness to Work Medicals are suitable for low-risk workplaces and non-hazardous environments only. High-risk occupations, such as plant operator, scaffolding worker, road worker (particularly motorways), traffic marshal, slinger, banksman, signaller, employee working at height, mechanical handling equipment worker and fork lift truck driver as well as tunnel and confined space worker, require in-person assessments for specific tests. We are unable to provide fitness certificates for these industries. Please consult with the appropriate authorities or occupational health professionals for the necessary evaluations.

For new jobs we will require a summary of your NHS GP records called a Summary Care Record (SCR). Please request this ahead of your appointment to avoid delays in issuing your certificate.
