Supply and Delivery of Specialist Medical Equipment

The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) recognises the beneficial impact that a positive health, safety and wellbeing culture can have on the organisation and are committed to the promotion of sensible and proportionate health and safety. The Health, Safety and Wellbeing (HSW) Function’s principle aim is to ensure the health, safety and wellbeing of every employee of SFRS whilst at work. The Health and Wellbeing department are responsible for the implementation of appropriate person-centred arrangements such as health surveillance programmes. The health surveillance programmes are part of most SFRS employee’s terms and conditions of employment and include baseline (recorded at the start of employment) ongoing (throughout the duration of employment) and exit health surveillance at the end of the employment. To carry out these tests the Health and Wellbeing members of staff require access to different types of specialist medical equipment.
