As the conversation around workplace wellbeing continues to evolve, one London-based organisation has shown what meaningful, inclusive health engagement can look like in practice.
This month marks one year since LiverScan first partnered with Chaucer, a global consultancy with a distinctly forward-thinking approach to supporting its people.
What began as a single onsite liver health clinic has grown into a series of repeat visits, driven not by management mandates but by staff demand — particularly among younger employees, many of whom feel overlooked by more traditional health initiatives due to age-related eligibility barriers.
In workplaces where wellbeing programmes often focus on older demographics or pre-existing conditions, Chaucer’s younger teams recognised something rare: an opportunity to take ownership of their health before problems arise. With FibroScan assessments offering immediate, personalised insight, the appeal was clear. So too was the message: liver health isn’t age-specific — and neither is liver disease.
“There’s a misconception that liver damage only affects older adults or those with long-term alcohol use,” says Claire Hardie, Chief Operating Officer at LiverScan. “In reality, lifestyle-related liver conditions, especially fatty liver disease, are increasingly common in younger people — driven by factors like diet, stress, inactivity and metabolic health. Chaucer’s teams understood that early insight is a powerful tool.”
For employers, the benefits of prioritising this kind of preventative health support are far-reaching. A workforce empowered with knowledge is one that performs better, takes fewer sick days, and feels genuinely valued. By offering accessible, stigma-free health checks onsite, Chaucer has cultivated a culture where prevention, not crisis response, is the norm.
The impact over the past year has been clear: strong engagement across departments, ongoing requests for return visits, and countless conversations sparked about lifestyle, health literacy and long-term wellbeing. It’s a reminder that corporate health initiatives don’t need to be age-limited — they need to be relevant, approachable and rooted in genuine care.
As LiverScan marks this first anniversary with Chaucer, the partnership stands as an example of how modern employers can lead the way: by supporting their workforce early, investing in preventative health, and recognising that a healthy liver — and a healthy team — is for life, not just for later life.
