How Can Occupational Health Improve My Business?
Read on to learn how The Walcote Practice’s occupational health services can help to you to achieve important HR and business goals.
The good health of each and every staff member in a business is fundamental to achieving and maintaining a happy, engaged, reliable and productive workforce. In today’s pressured world, occupational (or workplace) health is becoming ever more important to business sustainability and success – it can actually transform your business.
Why is Occupational Health Important?
Unfortunately, any employee may suffer from ill health, adversely affecting their work performance with knock-on consequences for other team members and the business as a whole.
Typical illnesses may range widely from colds, short-term illnesses and musculoskeletal problems to longer-term illnesses, stress, anxiety, depression and many more. Staff may not know how best to address their health issue/s, and often do not inform managers or HR staff due to the fear of potentially negative consequences to their employment. A downward spiral for both the employee and the business can easily ensue.
