Occupational Health
Chiron International offers a full suite of Occupational Health services led by Dr Kevin Bailey, a Fellow of the Faculty of Occupational Medicine as well as being an International Chief Medical Officer.
Having occupational health as an integral element of Chiron’s services adds significant value in several ways. By providing high-quality occupational health provision, we can enhance the overall wellbeing of clients and help them to navigate the complexities of workplace-related health issues.
How we add value with Occupational Medicine
Our occupational health professionals are skilled at identifying and addressing potential and actual workplace hazards, reducing medical risk, and promoting a healthier work environment. This can include interventions such as stress risk assessments, ergonomic assessments, safety consultations, and wellness programs to prevent work-related illness and injury.
Providing pre-employment and periodic medical examinations help ensure that clients are fit for their specific job roles. This can be particularly valuable in ensuring the overall wellbeing of the workforce, providing value to both employees and employers, improving both wellbeing and productivity.
Chiron’s occupational health specialists are well-placed to provide health promotion and education programmes to encourage individuals to make healthier lifestyle choices, reducing the risk of chronic disease, and improving overall health.
Conducting health and wellness assessments can help identify health risks and create tailored strategies for improvement.
Oversight of the management and rehabilitation of individuals with injuries or illnesses can facilitate a quicker return to work and ensure that they remain well at work.
Our occupational health services can include EAPs to address mental health and stress-related issues, supporting clients in managing their emotional wellbeing and contributing to better overall health.
Regular health screening for conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and raised cholesterol are integral to maintaining good health. Early detection of these health issues can often lead to more effective interventions.
Our specialists can advise on recommended immunisation programs for work and travel, ensuring that clients are up to date with the necessary vaccinations to protect against preventable disease.
Establishing onsite or near-site clinics can provide easy and convenient access to medical care and occupational health services, reducing medical risk and improving wellbeing for those working in remote and rural areas.
Where it is not feasible to provide onsite services, offering telemedicine and remote health services provides a convenient way to access healthcare, making it easier to address potential health concerns before they become problems.
We help organisations and individuals stay in compliance with health and safety regulations, reducing the risk of legal sanctions and penalties.
