Pregnancy risk assessment

[Coolerthanapolarbearstoenails]

Just wondering at what point in your pregnancy you saw occupational health and had your risk assessment(s) done?

I'm over 17w now and haven't seen anyone yet? It's not a high risk position but I have a high risk pregnancy.

I think mine was around 12 weeks but I'm not sure if there's a specific deadline. If your HR department doesn't know you have a high risk pregnancy, they may not realise you need adjustments. Could you reach out to them and ask to have your risk assessment now?

I did a risk assessment with my boss and a member of the health and safety committee at about 6 weeks.
I had my first risk assessment with hr at 8 weeks then 20 and 32 weeks.
Due to my job I had to tell them early and the key risk assessment for my work was the one at 8 weeks.

They know there's medical issues but not the nitty gritty. I think it's due to COVID I haven't had one - I cannot work from home and they are.

I told my employer at 5 weeks, so it's not like there's not been time.

I'd remind them OP, ask what the procedure is for requesting the assessment.

@BraveBabyNames I have! A few times now.

I was more wondering whether there was a deadline but it seems not.
