Health surveillance register.
Why you need it on the job
Health surveillance only works if the next check actually happens, and occupational disease develops quietly across years of missed appointments. The register puts every worker’s due dates in one place so a lapse is visible before it becomes a claim.
How it links to the standards
The equipment and controls this template asks you to record are governed by published standards that define what each item must withstand and how it is tested. These are the ones that apply most directly:
The full EN standards library covers every standard referenced across SafetyOrbit.

Frequently asked questions
Who needs health surveillance?
Anyone whose work exposes them to noise, vibration, respiratory sensitisers, skin irritants or other agents where early detection is possible.
What happens when a check flags something?
The register records the referral and the outcome, and the exposure that caused it has to be reduced rather than simply monitored.
