WHY OUTSOURCE OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH?
Due to continuously evolving health and safety issues which are gaining more complexity many businesses are finding it increasingly difficult to coordinate and implement an effective health and safety programme.Amendments to the Occupational Health and Safety Act place the responsibility on employers to provide appropriate occupational health services to their employees.
Businesses usually prefer to concentrate on their core business objectives and outsource the services of specialists with the knowledge and understanding of policy, compliance requirements and strategy for effective implementation.
We are committed to providing a high quality occupational health service which :
- Supports and enhances the employer’s health and safety programme.
- Advises on fulfilling statutory responsibilities for workplace safety, minimising risks and ensuring legislative compliance.
- Gives the employer evidence-based Occupational Health advice, ensuring the correct placement of employees.
- Promotes the physical, psychological and social well-being of all employees, thereby minimizing ill health, enhancing productivity and reducing medical and legal claims.
