Construction skews heavily toward men between 25 and 60 - the demographic with the lowest rate of voluntary primary care attendance anywhere. A tradesperson can go fifteen years without a blood pressure reading. Hypertension and elevated blood glucose cause no symptoms at all until they cause something serious, and both are picked up in a twenty-minute appointment.
There is a second reason it lands well on a site. Construction has a genuine problem with people not talking about their health, and a nurse in a trailer for a day normalises it. The conversation a worker has about their blood pressure often turns into the first conversation they have had about anything.
What this is not: voluntary wellness screening offered as a benefit. Not fitness-for-duty, not pre-employment, not an input to any employment decision. Results go to the worker. You receive attendance numbers and optionally a de-identified group picture.
We are on BC construction sites most days - 80 workers over two days for Pitt Meadows Plumbing, Vertis Construction in Abbotsford and Kuiler Contracting in Chilliwack.
We need a private space and a schedule. Everything else we bring.
One nurse manages roughly 16-20 appointments a day, and we add nurses for larger crews. Screening runs on the same visit as Construction Industry Program hearing testing and spirometry for construction crews.
Blood pressure, resting heart rate, SpO2, blood glucose, cholesterol where available, height, weight and BMI - taken on site by a Registered Nurse.
A nurse telling a 48-year-old framer what his blood pressure reading actually means is the part of this that works.
Individual results go to the employee and nowhere else. You receive attendance figures and, on request, a de-identified group summary.
We already come to your sites for hearing testing and fit testing. A wellness station is the same visit with an extra table.
If you are in a WorkSafeBC classification unit starting with 72, the Construction Industry Program covers your hearing testing and we are coming anyway. Running wellness screening the same day costs you one mobilisation and one interruption rather than two.
We say it to every participant before we start: your results are yours. We say the same to you before you book. Screening that a crew suspects is being reported to the super gets low turnout and finds nothing - the boundary is what makes the program work, not a legal formality.

They showed up to our jobsite in Duncan, on time and were well prepared for our team to have their fit tests done on site.
Wonderful experience! Noah was lovely to coordinate with and the testing experience was seamless for our team! Would happily book again for our next test. Cheers!
We got our mask fitting tests done by Amy. Both the service and attitude were excellent! Will definitely call them again for other services!
Great experience with Noah and Catherine. Showing up on time, very professional and on track for the schedule.
Definitely good at their job. Noah and Amy were at our construction job site and did a good job for testing. Helped all our crew on site.

A great on-site hearing test experience. Katherine was kind, professional, and made the process quick and comfortable.
Overall it was a wonderful experience for the test. Very professional and good consultation regarding hearing loss prevention.
Ammy took my hearing test and it was an awesome experience. She was very professional, kind, and explained everything clearly. The test was done smoothly and I felt comfortable the entire time. I truly appreciate her patience and excellent service. Highly recommended!
Common questions about on-site wellness screening for BC construction crews.
No. This is voluntary wellness screening offered as a benefit and it is not designed or intended to inform hiring, fitness-for-duty or any other employment decision. If you need a role-specific assessment tied to documented physical job demands, that is a different piece of work with different rules - ask us about it directly.
The worker. Individual results are theirs and we do not share them with you. You receive attendance numbers and can request a de-identified group summary with no names attached.
Yes, that is most of what we do. We need a private space - a site trailer works - and we schedule around breaks, pours and lifts rather than pulling people off critical work.
Yes, and that is the cheapest way to do it. We are already on your site for Construction Industry Program hearing testing. Adding a wellness station means one visit rather than two.
The nurse explains what the reading means and advises them to see their own doctor, with a clear note of what to raise. We do not diagnose and we do not treat - we find the things worth following up and make sure the worker knows about them.
RN-led wellness screening for the crew, results owned by the worker, attendance reported to you. Easiest to add to a hearing testing visit you are already booking.
