The Construction Workers Health Trust provides workers with health screening and health awareness information on site during work hours. The screening days are organised by the site Health and Safety Officer. Workers are provided with a QR code to book their appointment. The health screening is carried out by one of our CWHT qualified nurses using portable diagnostic equipment and covers

Test results are provided on the spot and are recorded in a personal Health Booklet given to each worker. Test results are also recorded electronically and available in the worker's Cushla App. Should any recommendation to GP be needed it will be made to the worker’s local GP. If a worker does not have a GP we provide access to one.
