What Every HR Director and Manager Needs to Know About Integrating H&S with OH – Free White Paper

The Case for Integrating Your Occupational Health and Health & Safety Systems

It often is the case that the OH and H&S funtions within an organisation are run as different departments who only work together and share information on a reactive, case-by-case, basis.

Today, this 'compartmentalised' approach is increasingly coming under scrutiny as it may be putting employees at risk and exposing organisations to higher costs and unnecessary claims.

Many organisations are considering bringing these disciplines together to share resources, information and expertise. This 'joined-up' approach enhances H&S and OH practice, allows better management of employee needs and facilitates better interventions. This approach enables faster and safer return to work and allows employers to take a more proactive approach to employee health and productivity.

This White Paper outlines the case for integration - the background, the reasons for considering this approach, the advantages and benefits, the process - gives cost benefits and highlights the realities of integration.

It includes case studies and scenarios, and explains the risks and potential exposure to claims and liabilities if an integrated approach is not adopted. It even explains the pitfalls and common mistakes that can disrupt or minimise the benefits of integration.
