Occupational health (OH) supports employees with work-related health and injury problems affecting them both in and outside of work. These can range from physical issues to mental health problems.

This practice contributes to an all-round healthier and more productive workforce, resulting in clear and obvious benefits for your company as a whole, particularly in reduced employee sickness and absence levels.

Occupational health in a post-COVID work environment

As companies move into new ways of hybrid working, our OH specialists combine their deep understanding of employee and business needs in this demanding environment, advising clients on reactive care and prevention including managing psychological care and physical wellbeing in the workplace. 

What do OH services include?

Occupational health case management

We manage each case on an individual basis, from patient care whilst remaining at work, through to returning to work after absenteeism and, where appropriate, long-term disability care. We encourage early support and work with all client providers to optimise care and ensure the best possible outcome.

Sickness and absence management

We offer our own world-class, user-friendly and price-competitive absence tracking system which promotes early intervention and the best possible outcomes in all cases.

We provide educational support for businesses and managers to help support care of staff to prevent both absenteeism and presenteeism.

Occupational health assessments

It is essential that employers understand any employee problems, disabilities and adjustments that need to be made for them to best perform their role. We offer a secure online assessment service and clear actionable recommendations. For particularly complex problems we provide telephone, telemedicine and face-to-face support.

Business travel vaccinations and advice

We offer a full travel medicine service, supporting safe business travel through travel risk assessment, malaria prophylaxis, travel vaccinations and travel health packs. We also assess travel risks, including deep vein thrombosis for long haul travel and frequent fliers.

Ill health and early retirement

We are experts in advising on early retirement and income protection where ill health is a component, with strong experience in advising and working with trustees in all retirement schemes of this nature.

Long-term disability

Many of our clients have insured or self-funded disability schemes. We provide expert advice and support through long-term disability, including ongoing advice on rehabilitation to ensure affected employees can be supported in their return to work in the future.
