Abermed Occupational Health

Occupational Health looks at the interface between work and health, put simply occupational health covers all the health and medical issues that can arise in the course of employment.

It's a two-way process - an individual's health can affect their work and, if not given proper consideration, an individual's work can affect their health.

The CBI estimates that more than £13 billion per annum is lost to UK industry every year due to sickness absence, the equivalent of some 30 million working days.

This in itself highlights why organisations need to take the health of their employees very seriously, but in some industries health is a far more critical issue than one of simply lost profit potential - for example in the North Sea oil and gas Industry, healthy people and healthy work practices are vital to protect the safety of others.
