What is Occupational Health
Occupational Health is a speciality which advises on how health may be affected by work and conversely how work may be affected by your health.
It deals not only with the health of an individual, but with the health of groups of employees. We work closely with Safety Managers in monitoring the workplace environment.
Occupational Health personnel are bound by ethical Codes of Conduct and the service is completely confidential. Advice may be given to Employees, Human Resources and Managers. The advice is given in a professional manner and is confidential and impartial. Employers are required by law to safeguard the health of their employees at work.
