Pre-Placement Screening
Ensuring suitability of candidates for roles.
Sometimes an employee can put themselves in serious danger acting under a mistaken impression that they are capable of more then they are. By providing pre placement screening you protect your employees from harms way and before they have already become entangled in aspects of a role unsuitable for them.
Knowing of problems before they develop to an unforseen magnitude and greet you on a Friday afternoon gives you the opportunity to plan effectively and allocate appropriate resources in good time.
While there are limitations set forth in the Equality Act of 2010 that restrict employers for screening candidates prior to a job offer. There is, however, also an obligation for employers to ensure an employee is fit for the job under Management of Health and Safety Regulations 1999. RMSL will help guide you as to the challenges of complying with government legislation keeping you on a firm legal footing.
Medical Surveillance
Maintain awareness of the threats to your team and your business.
Knowing how situations are progressing in a timely fashion is the key to effective planning and business security. Our medical surveillance services provision risk specific examinations as part of a plan to ensure you know whats happening in your company.
Should a risk assessment determine it necessary, there is a legal obligation on the employer to provide immunisation, administered at a professional standard. Our nursing unit has processed tens of thousands of vaccinations and are the competent professionals who can ensure your compliance.
Immunisations
Proctecting your people from the unseen threats.
It can always throw a spanner in the works to have an employee unexpectedly take ill, especially for a longer period, and the experience is an unpleasant one for them. An immunisation plan for employees can help them stay protected, reducing chances of an employee becoming unwell.

First Aid Training
The life-saving tools your team needs.
Every year, thousands of people in the UK die in an entirely preventable manner simply due to the lack of first aid knowledge of those around them. When disaster strikes ensure that you and your employees have the competence to avert it.
Often first aid isn’t an activity regularly practiced. If it’s been a long time since your team was originally trained, retraining could be a great way to show your workforce that you are willing to invest in them and ensure they are capable in the split seconds where they could save a life.
As determined by your risk assessment, it may be a requirement for you to have first aid officers and other trained individuals in your workforce. RMSL can ensure your team is up to the mark.
Case Management
With each patient, every step of the way.
Continuity of care is an extremely important concept in the medical profession. So much time can be wasted and confusion created by frequent change overs of practitioners. When we manage a case we assign a single physician to that case so that they can deal with you or your employee in a detailed and immersed.
While ongoing case management in one place is not a legal requirement, doing so is likely to vastly reduce the margin of error and the ability of an occupational health provider to adhere closely to your policies and expectations. This helps to simplify the fact of your compliance to the eye of a 3rd party.
Ill-health Retirement Consultancy
Helping you figure out what time is the right time.
Not only is it ethically favourable to assist a committed employee who has fallen on hard times to find an agreeable resolution, but it is also a powerful way to signal to your entire workforce that you really do care for their wellbeing. Turn a situation which can be extremely unfortunate into a clear singal of your dedication to your employees.
Knowing of problems before they develop to an unforseen magnitude and greet you on a Friday afternoon gives you the opportunity to plan effectively and allocate appropriate resources in good time.
Health And Safety Policy
Designing a compliant and comprehensive company policy in cohesion with other concerned departments.
While health and safety or HR specialists are well trained in risk assessment within the confines of their discipline, they most commonly lack the breadth of relevant medical knowledge which an occupational physician can bring to the table. RMSL can approach the issues facing your work place from a different angle, providing you with a more holistic end result.
As a business leader, maintaining team morale is a top priority as it keeps productivity and enthusiasm high. Employees who feel that they are treated poorly or feel they are unsafe at work are vulnerable to falling out of touch with the business, a condition which can rapidly spread throughout a team. Having a comprehensive policy helps employees feel cared for by employers, enabling you to beat back the ever present threat of disheartenment.
As occupational physicians, we are well acquainted with the relevant legal literature (The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations) and are able to guide you through your statutory requirements.
