Occupational Health
Our Occupational Health Services
Pre-Employment Medicals
Comprehensive "Fit for Work" assessments tailored to your industry. We check physical ability, vision, and medical history to ensure your candidate is safe to start.
Workplace Drug & Alcohol Testing
Fast, accurate screening using the latest AS/NZS 4308:2023 standards. We provide ESR-accredited instant urine screening and breath alcohol testing for pre-employment, random, or post-incident requirements.
Health Monitoring (Audiometry & Spirometry)
Meet your annual WorkSafe requirements. We provide baseline and annual monitoring for noise (Hearing), dust/chemical exposure (Spirometry/Lung Function), and Hand-Arm Vibration (HAVS) screening.
A Medical-Led Approach to Compliance & Safety
Unlike basic testing agencies, 1 Health is a fully integrated Medical Centre. We don't just provide a result; we provide a clinical solution. We have recently updated our protocols to meet the AS/NZS 4308:2023 standards, ensuring your workplace drug and alcohol testing is legally robust and accurate.
The 1 Health Advantage: If a health issue is detected during an assessment—such as high blood pressure in a driver or an abnormal lung function result—our onsite GPs and Nurses can often address the issue immediately. This "One-Stop" approach dramatically reduces delays, getting your staff certified and back to work faster than a standalone testing agency ever could.
Weekend AVAILABILITY
Weekend Appointments for Drivers & Contractors
We know that pulling staff off the road or the building site during the week loses you revenue. That is why 1 Health offers Occupational Health and Driver Medical appointments on weekends.
For corporate accounts or bulk bookings, please email our practice manager directly. For individual driver medicals, you can book online instantly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a pre-employment medical take?
A standard assessment takes approximately 30–45 minutes. Results are typically processed and sent to the employer within 24 hours, provided there are no complex medical issues to review.
Do you offer account terms for local businesses?
Yes. We work with many local companies in Wigram and Hornby. Please contact our admin team to set up a business account for streamlined monthly billing.Most patients enjoy the full benefits for 3 to 4 months. Over time, the body naturally metabolises the product, and muscle movement gradually returns. With regular maintenance treatments, many patients find they can go longer between appointments as the muscles learn to relax.
Is your drug testing compliant with NZ Standards?
Yes. Our testing is fully compliant with the latest AS/NZS 4308:2023 standards (recently updated from the 2008 version). Our staff are fully trained and we use ESR-accredited procedures to ensure your results are legally robust and accurate.
Can you accommodate heavy trucks at your clinic?
Yes. We are located on Henry Wigram Drive / Springs Road with wide access and parking suitable for Class 2-5 vehicles, making it easy for drivers to stop in.
Do you do onsite flu vaccinations for companies?
Yes, we can arrange for our nurses to visit your workplace for annual flu vaccination clinics to help protect your staff during winter.
