We work closely with employers and managers so as to reduce absenteeism and presenteeism, and improve productivity. The following approach is recommended:

• Employees with poor attendance or reduced performance at work will be referred for a consultation with the Occupational Physician. A Referral Form to be e-mailed to info@sigmaoh.co.uk . A report will be submitted to the referring Manager following the OH Consultation.
• Case Conferences will be held with Managers to discuss specific employees or general health issues impacting on work

Other services available

• Stress Audits and Stress Risk Assessments: we can carry out a survey of specific workplaces or departments and feed back to the employer about causes and triggers of psychological stress
• Health Surveillance of employees exposed to Noise, Lead, Asbestos and Hazardous Chemicals in the working environment
