Annual Health Questionnaire
Annual Health Questionnaire (AHQ)
The Annual Health Questionnaire (AHQ) is the starting point for all Fit for Work assessments and Health Surveillance programmes. This confidential document gathers baseline and annual updates on an employee’s medical status, helping employers proactively identify health changes that may impact workplace safety.
Why It Matters
✔ Detect health risks early
✔ Comply with UK health and safety regulations
✔ Protect employees and reduce liability
The AHQ is not designed to exclude employees from roles, but to identify potential risks and ensure appropriate support and protective measures are in place.
