Our consultancies include:

- Businesses need to rest easily that they can comply with health and safety legislation and meet their obligations of duty of care to their employees. As a business you will want to be supportive and be fair and equitable to your staff. Also you will want to be able to manage your costs effectively and take fair and justifiable action when health and work issues present themselves. If you need assistance in setting up an occupational health service, in understanding how a service might deliver for you or you want to engage an experienced occupational physician to assist you in meeting the ongoing needs of your business in the arena of health and safety, then IOM can provide that assistance
- Reviews of specific health hazards and work practices
- Occupational health training
- IOM can help you cut the cost of health surveillance by helping you train your own staff to carry out structured questionnaire-based checks on workers who are potentially exposed to health hazards in the workplace. These do not replace the need for medical assessments done by clinically trained staff, but, incorporated within a properly structured programme, some interim assessments can be done by appropriately trained responsible persons.
- IOM can also provide training and support for line managers, HR and Health & Safety staff within your business who may want to know how best to use occupational health services, how to set up a health surveillance programme or how to go about implementing occupational health advice. Tell us what your needs are and we will respond with tailored solutions.
- Medico-legal advice and report preparation
- Ill-health Retirement and Pensions Advice
- IOM can provide specialist occupational physician advice to help you manage those cases where ill health retirement is being considered or where an independent, qualified medical opinion is required to determine eligibility for retirement under the rules of the scheme in question. Please contact us so we can explain how we will guide you through the process.
We also provide a wide range of occupational health services including health screening and surveillance, clinical examinations and health education.
