Return to Work Assessments

Why Return to Work Assessments Are Important

When an employee has been off work due to illness, injury, or stress, it’s essential to manage their return carefully. A professional occupational health assessment helps to:

  • Confirm whether an employee is fit to return.

  • Recommend reasonable workplace adjustments.

  • Reduce the risk of relapse or further absence.

  • Ensure compliance with UK employment law and HSE guidelines.


What Our Assessments Include

Our return to work assessments are tailored to each individual case and may involve:

  • A confidential consultation with the employee.

  • A review of medical history and treatment progress.

  • Assessment of the employee’s fitness for work.

  • Recommendations for phased return-to-work programmes.

  • Advice on adjustments, such as flexible hours, modified duties, or additional support.

All findings are provided in a clear, evidence-based occupational health report for employers.
