Occupational Health

An occasional sick day is largely unavoidable, long-term or higher than normal levels of short-term absence pose a much greater cost threat. And for that, Enlighten offers a range of services that can dramatically reduce the level of sickness, absence and the associated cost. As a result, our assistance could also help increase the productivity of your workforce.

Preventative Measures
To prevent sickness and absence, we provide:

Pre-placement health assessments to determine that recruitment candidates are suitable for the role they are applying for and that their health will not be adversely affected by it.

Assessments to monitor the health of employees, through which we deliver practical advice to address any identified areas of concern.

A range of education services that can greatly increase employee health and wellbeing awareness. These can be delivered using printed/online literature, training or a range of innovative and memorable delivery methods such as tailored health awareness programmes.

Helping Employees Back to Work
Our aim with longer-term absence is to facilitate a return to work for the employee as quickly as possible. Even if initially only in a limited capacity, this can begin to reduce the cost of absence for the employer as well as rebuild the confidence of the employee. After gathering initial information about the situation – usually by way of a simple referral questionnaire – the employee will meet with one of our specialist consultants. Together, they will explore options and, particularly in the case of employees who exhibit higher than normal levels of short-term absence, identify potential root causes. The consultant will then prepare a concise report and help to determine an appropriate course of action that serves the best interests of employer and employee.
