Occupational Health Pre Employment Screening

Hi all,

Been offered a new job and passed the reference stage

I have been asked to do a Occupational Health Pre-screening questionnaire - role is within an NHS funded organisation- but I am not frontline to patients

I have been told I can start as soon as they have processed this, I was wondering if anyone had any experience on how long they can take?

    I've worked in several hospitals and never had the health form hold anything up. It's just been a formality.

    Brilliant,

    Thanks a lot

    They mentioned me starting Monday if they got the form back in time but it was only submitted late yesterday afternoon so thought that may be a bit ambitious which is why I wanted to check
