Occupational health across Lancashire

From our Preston base we cover the whole county, including Blackburn, Burnley, Blackpool, Chorley and Lancaster.

Lancashire has a heavier industrial base than most of the North West, and the surveillance workload reflects that. Aerospace and defence supply chains, chemicals, textiles, quarrying, food manufacturing and waste handling all carry exposures that trigger statutory duties under COSHH, the Noise Regulations or the Vibration Regulations.

Because the county is spread out, most Lancashire programmes run as booked on-site days rather than individual clinic appointments. We plan the round against your shift pattern so a full crew is screened in one visit instead of losing people to travel.

Lancashire employers we work with

  • Aerospace and defence supply chain
  • Chemicals and process manufacturing
  • Textiles and industrial laundries
  • Quarrying, aggregates and waste handling
  • Food and drink manufacturing
  • Agriculture and rural contractors

What Lancashire sites usually ask for

For sites away from the M6 corridor we normally batch a full surveillance round into a planned clinic day, with a mobile unit where you have no suitable room.

  • Annual health surveillance rounds delivered on site in one or two visits
  • Respirable crystalline silica surveillance for quarrying and stone work
  • Respiratory sensitiser surveillance in food, chemical and paint processes
  • Noise and vibration programmes across large maintenance teams
  • Safety-critical, working at height and confined space medicals
