Occupational Health Assessments
Our occupational health assessment is to advise employers on an employee’s health issues in relation to their work. We make professional recommendations on obtainable adjustments that will ensure a safer, and healthier working environment for that employee.
What is an Occupational Health Assessment?
An occupational health assessment occurs when an employee returns to work after an extended period of absence or in situations where an employee’s health is affecting their work.
We offer a myriad of Occupational Health Assessment services that can be purchased on a ad hoc basis. Absenteeism is costing the UK economy more than £100 billion per year. This is an issue that effects all businesses, and we fully appreciate that employers need a professional and worthwhile advise when dealing with staff absences.
