As we move our Occupational Health service in-house, your main remit will be supporting and managing our case referrals (e.g. sickness, absence, rehabilitation), from assessments and advising on best course of action (e.g. treatment plans, restrictions of duties, reasonable adjustments) through evidence-based reports to liaising with external supplier to support this activity, as required. You will be supported by two colleagues, focussing on mental health and health surveillance activities. Working closely with our HR team and Managers, to provide current professional insight around legislative requirements, proactively feed into our wellbeing activities and internal training and review our policies and procedures with regards to OH requirements to continually improve the working lives of our people.
