Sheffield Occupational Health Advisory Service
Sheffield Occupational Health Advisory Service has been supporting people in Sheffield to manage their health and work issues through our one-to-one advice service since 1980.
We also work with employers across South Yorkshire to provide a non-medical occupational health assessment for staff where they are struggling to return to work.
This is how it works:
- The employer fills in a form to provide an outline the issues they see from their perspective that may have caused the sickness absence and what may be the barriers preventing a return to work or be causing problems at work.
- A SOHAS adviser will contact the employee and will use the referral form as a guide to ask the employee about their views on their health and work, and write a report and give some recommendations that will help both the employee and employer to facilitate a return to work.
The report which includes the consent of the employee to ensure it is accurate usually takes 10 working days to complete.
Please contact Sarah Cooke, the SOHAS Administrator, for more information and pricing by calling 0114 2755760.
