Skanska introduces virtual healthcare service for employees 

New Digital GP service offers around-the-clock healthcare advice and support

Skanska has launched a digital platform to support the health and wellbeing of employees and their immediate families.

The Digital GP service is available 24/7, providing advice and, where appropriate, diagnosis, as well as prescription services, open referrals and fit notes. 

The service, operated by HealthHero, allows employees and their families to connect with a doctor via video call or phone consultation. 

Harvey Francis, executive vice president of Skanska UK, who has led the implementation of this new service, said: “We are really pleased to be able to extend this benefit to all our employees. 

“’Care for life’ is one of our core values. By providing a way to access GP services 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, we are supporting our people and their families to stay healthy.”
