Occupational Healthcare

With workplace absence due to sickness costing firms an average of £595 per employee per year, it makes sense to make the health and welfare of your staff a corporate priority.

YourGP offers Occupational Health Services in addition to our existing range of services. We combine medical experience with knowledge of many different working conditions. We are able to advise on the interaction of health and work by carrying out the appropriate assessment of employees and then providing managers with professional input, enabling informed management decisions. We are also able to provide information and advice about occupational health matters to employers and employees.

Occupational health is a specialised area of medicine primarily concerned with the suitability of an individual in the work environment considering the individual’s health status relating to his/her ability to perform a specific task from recruitment and through all stages of their working life.

Employers have a duty of care under the Health and Safety at Work Act, 1974 to ensure the health, safety and welfare of all their employees so far as is reasonably practicable and we can assist with this requirement.
