BOOK AN ON-SITE HEALTH SCREENING 

Health screenings are free for companies that contribute to the CWHT via the Construction Workers Pension Scheme. To book your site for health screening contact our Health Screening Operations Manager, Lesliann, at lesliann.flynn@cwht.ie or call 01 7093070. 
 
To accompany a booking your Health and Safety Officer must complete a health screening site survey (below).  
 
Once a site visit is organised workers will book their screening slot and complete their consent form online. They will then be invited to download their CWHT sponsored personal electronic health record Cushla app and have their screening results communicated to the app. The app also allows the integration of wearables and subsequent health records.  
 
Our videos (opposite) highlight our work. The top video highlights who we are, what our health screening consists of and how booking works. The bottom video features the digital process and how the Cushla electronic health record app allows workers get more engaged with their health.
