WHAT IS OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH?



Occupational Health is the promotion and maintenance of the highest degree of physical, mental and social well-being of workers in all occupations by preventing departures from health, controlling risks and the adaptation of work to people, and people to their jobs. Occupational health and safety consultants analyze many types of work environments and work procedures. Consultants inspect workplaces for adherence to regulations on safety, health, and the environment. They also design programs to prevent disease or injury to workers and damage to the environment. 

Medical Director Occupational Health Consulting is concerned with keeping people well at work — physically and mentally. This includes advising about workplace safety and the prevention of occupational injuries and disease, assessing fitness for work and helping to rehabilitate those who have suffered injury or sickness back into work. MDOHC services are also used to assist organizations in managing absence situations — both short and long term.

Being out of work has significant negative effects for the physical and mental health of the individual. There is good evidence that getting back into work not only improves self esteem but aids recovery and rehabilitation. Forty million working days are lost every year to occupational ill health and a third of people claiming Incapacity Benefit have come from work.

Medical Director Occupational Health Consulting is therefore important for the economy, for society and for the individual.
