Support

Our two directors Nick and Gail previously ran an integrated Occupational Health and ‘Health and Safety’ department in a large manufacturing company, so know how Occupational Health, Health and Safety and Occupational Hygiene should work together… more about Occupational Health Contracts
Wellbeing and Stress Risk Assessment
“The adverse reaction people have to excessive pressures or other types of demand placed on them at work.”
There is a difference between pressure and stress. Pressure can be a good thing that motivates people and is a key part of a person’s job. However, if the pressure becomes excessive then a person will begin to develop signs of stress. Stress is a natural reaction to too much pressure… more about Wellbeing and Stress Risk Assessment
Occupational Health Awareness Training

Rehabilitations Programs
Rehabilitation programs are designed to ensure a safe plan of returning employees back to their normal role following an absence. There is a legal requirement under the Equality Act to make reasonable adjustments (you do not have to create a role, but must assess all the company) to support an employee with certain medical conditions to return to work in a safe manner. Also under the Health and Safety at Work Act, companies have a Duty of Care to ensure employees’ health is not affected by the work they carry out. More about Rehabilitation Programs
Occupational Health Policy and Procedure Writing
If you are introducing occupational health into your business, you will want to define your documented standards or standard operating procedures. This can become very relevant, in particular, should a claim or employment HR issue arise around wellbeing or drug and alcohol testing. Our trained and knowledgeable occupational health not only advise, counsel, and carry out health checks but they can also write the policies and procedures to support your occupational health and safety management systems. More about Occupational Health Policy and Procedure Writing
Equality Act Advice
The Equality Act 2010 replaced previous legislation (such as the Race Relations Act 1976 and the Disability Discrimination Act 1995) and ensures consistency in what employers and employees need to do to make their workplaces a fair environment and comply with the law. More about Equality Act Advice.
