Our Healthy Workplaces Derbyshire team have been getting on board with Amber Valley workers to explain the logistics of health.
We’ve been working with Unipart Logistics in Somercotes to help provide health and wellbeing support to a wide range of staff including customer services, warehouse operatives and drivers.
The company started working with us in June 2024 as part of their ongoing staff engagement work.
Over 5 days we delivered a total of 35 health checks to staff on site.
Health checks include blood pressure testing, checking cholesterol and glucose levels, height and weight measurements and signposting into stop smoking and weight management services.
Graham Walsh is General Manager at the Somercotes site. He said:
“It has made most of the participating colleagues actively reflect on and change their lifestyle choices.”
Graham was pleased with the support given by our team, adding:
“Your health is paramount, and you can improve your quality of life by making simple changes.
“The support received from the advisors was good and I would fully recommend it as there are engagement benefits and a potential to reduce sickness levels.”
