Fitness assessment for work in confined and high-risk environments
Confined space work is one of the highest-risk activities in industry. The Confined Spaces Regulations 1997 require that anyone entering such environments is fit to do so — both physically and psychologically.
Our assessment considers cardiovascular capacity, respiratory function, mobility, and the ability to remain calm and competent under emergency conditions.
What's included
- Cardiovascular and respiratory assessment
- Blood pressure, pulse and ECG where indicated
- Lung function testing (spirometry)
- Musculoskeletal and mobility assessment
- Screening for claustrophobia and panic-related conditions
- Review of medication that could impair performance in an emergency
- Written fitness-to-work statement
Who it's for
Workers entering tanks, silos, sewers, tunnels, vessels, pits, ducts or any enclosed space with restricted access — including utilities, construction, manufacturing, and rescue teams.
