Management Referrals

Home > Services > Occupational Health > Management Referrals

Management Referrals exist to give management access to independent, expert clinical advice to help keep their employees safe, healthy, and productive. 

Why make a management referral?

You may choose to refer your employees if they are having health issues that affect their work, if your employee is often absent for health-related reasons, or if they are returning to work following sick leave.

When companies make good use of Management Referrals, they reduce both presenteeism and sickness absence, and overall increase productivity.

  • We meet with your employee, either in person or via video call, and discuss their case.

  • Your employee’s consent is gained to share the details of their assessment.

  • A thorough report is delivered to you, detailing our independent assessment of the case, and laying out recommendations for adjustments.

  • Our clinicians are always on hand to discuss the case further with you.
