Occupational Health
For many years we’ve enjoyed the benefits of a proactive in-house occupational health service staffed by consultant occupational physicians and specialist occupational health nurses. They ensure everyone is fit for work and support our managers in promoting optimum health and preventing illnesses caused by work.
Confidential health screenings
As part of our “Get Healthy Stay Healthy” programme, those who work at RWE npower sites can request a confidential one-hour health screening with an occupational health nurse. This includes an assessment of their health and lifestyle and leads to tailored health advice. This includes an assessment of their health and lifestyle and leads to tailored health advice.
Psychological Health
Having run 'Managing Stress' workshops for managers for a number of years, we are now addressing the much larger concern of 'Common Mental Health Problems'. We are piloting a new 'Healthy Mind' workshop which is designed to give managers the skills and confidence to recognise such problems at an early stage and then be prepared to intervene to help individual team members.
Our employees have access to our occupational health staff for confidential advice as well as an external counselling service.
