Frequently asked questions
Employers are obliged by law to offer health assessments to people who work at nights. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) enforces regulations which are specified in the Working Time Regulations 1998.
Night worker health assessments can identify where night shift work may be causing health risks.
Employers are obliged by law to offer staff working at night regular health checks, but employees don’t have to have them if they don’t want to, they just have to be offered. Employers must offer assessments on a repeat basis, most chose annually.
If a health problem is found that’s the result of night work, employers have to offer appropriately alternative work if they can.
Working at night can cause serious health problems. Changing shift patterns can cause havoc with natural sleep patterns.
Night work can increase the risk of getting heart disease, diabetes and obesity. Some studies have shown that eating at night, which many night workers will do, reduces your ability to process sugar or glucose.
Working at night has also been linked with increasing rates of breast cancer too, but it’s not clear if night work does or does not cause breast cancer.
If you work for three or more hours, between 11pm and 6am, you’re classed as a night worker.
Our fees are generally based upon a per-questionnaire completed rate, which means you won’t risk paying to cover employees who may not take up the offer of an assessment. We do have to reflect a fee for any follow-up work our clinicians may need to do, such as confirming the information provided by the employee, if it is incomplete.
Night worker health assessment questionnaires attract a fee of £30 each and can also be tailored to specific environments. Please contact us for further details.
