The purpose of fitness for duty assessments is to ascertain if an individual is physically and mentally fit to carry out their job requirements in a way that is safe for themselves and others. Advances in practice have moved these assessments from blanket medicals for all employees to tailored assessments based on role requirements and hazardous exposures. OHWS will work with you to determine the components of Fitness for Duty assessments by closely appraising the job requirements for each job category in keeping with best practice in Occupational Health. In addition, our Occupational Health Experts possess the expertise to carry out, recommend or review fitness for work assessments for non-safety critical roles and safety-critical or sensitive roles such as Drivers, Offshore Workers, Food Handlers, etc.

We will also work with you to determine when an employee is fit to return to work after a period of absence from work due to ill-health, making clear recommendations about any temporary or permanent adjustments to how they work that will ease them successfully back into working productively.
