About Your Management Referral

Management referrals provide specialized occupational health assessments when employees experience health issues affecting workplace performance or attendance. Our comprehensive evaluations help employers support staff effectively while maintaining operational requirements, creating balanced solutions benefiting both organizational needs and employee wellbeing through expert medical guidance.

These assessments provide valuable independent medical perspective on complex workplace health situations including long-term sickness absence, performance concerns related to health conditions, potential workplace adjustments, fitness for specific duties, and return-to-work planning following illness or injury. Our thorough approach ensures fair evaluation while supporting appropriate workplace accommodations.

Our experienced occupational health physicians deliver comprehensive assessments followed by detailed reports with practical recommendations addressing specific workplace concerns. These include clear guidance on reasonable adjustments, phased return plans, temporary modifications, permanent accommodations, or alternative role considerations where appropriate while ensuring legal compliance with disability legislation and employment regulations.
