Occupational Health

Occupational Health is a multidisciplinary field concerned with the safety, health and well being of people at work.

The goals of occupational health programs include the promotion of a safe and healthy work environment. OH may also protect co-workers, family members, employers, customers, and many others who might be affected by the workplace environment and includes safety for activities outside of work. It plays a vital role in helping employers support and understand the needs of their employees, enabling businesses to reduce sickness absence levels and optimise staff performance and productivity.
