What is Occupational Health Screening and why do I need it?
Occupational Health Screening is the process of carrying out structured and consistent assessments to determine whether a candidate presents a high or low level of risk. At Distinction Solutions, we conduct these screenings to support employment procedures and confirm that individuals meet the required standards to obtain a Fitness to Work Certificate for placement. Our commitment is to protect and promote the wellbeing of everyone in the workplace—employees, service users, and external partners alike.
