- Within 48 hours of the assessment, a written report is sent to the referrer via email with recommendations for further actions.
- The report includes contact details of recommended equipment suppliers, complete with product codes and prices for ease of ordering.

Suitability
This assessment is suitable for an employee experiencing pain or discomfort, who is currently continuing to work or is on sick leave. The Company may have performed an internal H & S risk assessment but the discomfort and problems have continued. Therefore more specialist advice and help is required.
This assessment can be conducted prior to an employee returning to work following a period of sick leave, in order to ensure that the work task layout and equipment are the most suitable for them.
This assessment can also help prevent ill health in employees.
