EMPLOYEE HEALTH IS OUR PRIORITY

WHAT DO WE DO BETTER ?

Early Intervention

Early intervention is key to supporting employees in accessing appropriate treatment and services, as well as helping them to continue to be able to work or return to work at the appropriate time. It is well known that ‘work is healthy ‘and our intervention is key to ensuring that each employee feels supported and able to be in work as soon as they are able.
Through our model every contact an employee receives is from a clinician specialised in absence management and return to work, ensuring all recommendations are specific and evidenced based.

Vocational Health Model

With regards to managing absenteeism and presenteeism we use a Vocational Health Model rather than a traditional Occupational Health Model, which means we use a case management approach to drive return to work outcomes, rather than merely mitigating risk by solely focusing on health barriers.
Our Vocational Health model is backed by the papers written by Dame Carol Black and David Frost CBE, Working for a healthier tomorrow and Health at work, an independent review of sickness absence. These papers state very clearly that a case management approach is optimum for managing sickness absence in the workplace.
