Your people are vital to your success



If your people stay well, this helps to keep your business fit and healthy too. And supporting them when they’re unwell helps you get them back to work quickly, limiting the impact to your business. This is especially important if you have a small workforce.

 “A focus on employee wellbeing and health promotion benefits people and their employers. It can help prevent ill health, and support people to balance work whilst minimising the impact of any ill health symptoms, where possible."

Management Referral Service

Telephone assessment and management
advice report
 £156.00 excl. VAT*

If an employee is off work because of a health problem, or a health issue is starting to affect their ability to do their normal job, you can refer them for an independent medical assessment done by an occupational health adviser. You’ll get clear and practical advice to help you manage the situation and limit the extent of your employee’s health issue. What’s more, conducting an assessment at an early stage could stop a problem from getting worse.


How it works: 

  • Once you have On Demand set up, you can make a referral through our online platform.
  • Then a telephone assessment will take place with the individual and an occupational health adviser.
  • This is then followed by a management advice report.
