Occupational Health
Fitness to Work Certification
The issue of a Fitness to Work Certificate is far more than a ‘box ticking’ bureaucratic
procedure required to clear a candidate for placement. Such certification is required
in order to protect employees, clients and co-workers alike. Employers depend upon
the professional expertise of occupational health practitioners to ensure that anyone
placed into a specific role is physically and mentally fit to carry it out to acceptable
standards. Any failure to apply the highest standards of professional care in this
critical activity could have potentially catastrophic consequences for employers,
employees and their clients.
The Team
Our occupational health service has been carefully designed to address the specific
needs of candidate compliance management. In order to ensure that all clients receive
the highest possible standard of service, we have appointed a highly qualified professional
team to organise and supervise the occupational health process. Not only did this
team design our business processes but it also regularly audits our internal compliance
to these processes.
Leading Occupational Health Physician
The professional team is led by Medical Director Jill Haslehurst, MBChB DIH AFOM,
an Occupational Health Physician with more than 30 years’ experience within the speciality
working for some of the UK’s largest corporate organisations. Jill is supported by
Stella Sawyer, RGN PGDipOH&S RSCPHN(OH), an Occupational Health Advisor, delivering
occupational health services in a corporate environment. Both are published authorities
in specialised aspects of occupational health and are nationally recognised as leaders
within their fields.
From Start to Fitness
Our approach is to engage direct with candidates. In case of failure or any other
issues the candidate is dealt with professional expertise and the gravitas required
to deal with locums on medical issues . Our team works together with the client consultant
in an effort to persuade locums to co-operate. Our staff are fully trained and qualified
to do the whole job for you. We assume full responsibility for the whole occupational
health process from start to finish.
IT processes and control
In these times of technological sophistication, just about every business process
requires the support of an IT application. Occupational health is no different. We
have focused on investment in our systems to achieve the highest possible levels
of efficiency, reliability and security. The application was developed using the
most advanced systems specifically to support staff compliance management.
If you are interested in accessing the highest quality occupational health service
