Healthwork accredited by Link-up for PTS medicals and drug/alcohol testing

22/02/2013

Healthwork has been accredited by Link-up to become an approved supplier to the rail industry.  Healthwork had a Link-up audit on 6th February 2013 and has passed the audit succesfully.  This means Healthwork is now approved to perform Personal Track Safety (PTS) medicals and drug & alcohol tests for employees in the railway industry.

Trackside and other rails workers must have regular medical assessments to demonstrate their medical fitness.  The PTS medical is a Network Rail requirement according to guidelines issued by Network Rail and Rail Safety & Standards Board. Only Link-Up approved suppliers/providers can perform these medicals and Healthwork is now an approved Link-Up supplier/provider.

The Link-Up auditor praised Healthwork describing us as having "comprehensive job descriptions", and we praised on having "developed an excellent rail specific internal audit tool".  The auditors were also impressed that we plan to deliver a physician led medical assessment service.
