Who Needs a Safety Critical Medical?
A Safety Critical Medical is required for individuals whose job roles involve significant risks to their own safety or the safety of others. Employers are legally responsible for ensuring that workers in such roles are medically fit.
Common roles include:

- Confined space workers
- Workers at height
- Heavy machinery operators
- Commercial drivers
- Utility and engineering staff
If your role involves physical exertion, hazardous environments, or safety-sensitive responsibilities, a Safety Critical Medical is mandatory.

Monitoring your blood pressure to detect any risks such as hypertension that could affect your performance.
