What Is an Occupational Health Assessment?
An occupational health assessment is a medical examination performed by a doctor who determines whether or not someone is fit for work. The assessment can also include recommendations for workplace improvements which will help someone work more safely and effectively. Workplace safety as a whole can also be a concern, with some doctors traveling to workplaces to confirm that the overall workplace is healthy for employees. Some employers require their personnel to undergo occupational health assessments on a regular basis, so that they can keep an eye on employee health and safety, while others may request assessments as needed.
