Wind Turbine Worker Medicals (Land & Sea) in Leicester

Wind Turbine Worker Medicals at The Health Suite Leicester – Specialist Medicals for a Demanding Industry

Working on wind turbines, whether on land or offshore, is a physically and mentally demanding role. It requires climbing to great heights, working in confined spaces, operating in challenging weather conditions, and often being away from immediate medical support. For these reasons, employers and regulatory bodies require workers to undergo specific medical assessments to confirm they are fit for duty.

At The Health Suite in Leicester, our Occupational Health team provides comprehensive Wind Turbine Worker Medicals for both onshore (land-based) and offshore (sea-based) workers. These assessments are carried out by experienced doctors with a background in occupational health, ensuring compliance with industry standards and giving you and your employer confidence in your fitness to work.

What’s Included in a Wind Turbine Worker Medical?

Your 60-minute appointment includes a full assessment tailored to wind turbine work:

  • Medical history review and lifestyle assessment
  • Height, weight, and Body Mass Index (BMI)
  • Blood pressure and cardiovascular check
  • Vision and colour vision testing
  • Basic hearing assessment (audiometry if indicated)
  • Urinalysis
  • Musculoskeletal assessment for climbing and confined space work
  • Chester Step Test – aerobic fitness assessment (required for wind turbine workers)
  • Discussion of any ongoing health conditions, medications, or risks that may affect safe working

At the end of the wind turbine worker medical assessment, you will receive a fitness certificate, which can be provided directly to your employer if required.
