What looks daunting from the outside should be a straightforward process, even if referrals come with complex histories. Below I go through what a management referral process looks like, offering advice and tips for managers.

Some of our training is required by law, for example: paediatric first aid if you work with children or food safety courses when working in catering. Some boosts productivity or prevents absences, such as stress management or manual handling training. Some saves lives, such as First Aid and Mental Health First Aid. We provide certified award winning courses delivered by the best instructors in the industry.
Many companies screen new starters, night workers, shift workers, and those in clinical settings that require certain criteria for a job role. We provide bespoke and legally compliant screening tools to avoid future losses in productivity and increased absence levels, and we ensure companies are able to make the adjustments necessary to be a fully compliant employer.
Working at a desk all day can become very uncomfortable physically and mentally and many employees need their desk, computer equipment, phone, and chair sorted out to be comfortable and ergonomically correct. Same goes with people who drive a vehicle all day, aggravating or creating physical symptoms that may lead to absences and lower job performance. Our specialists will conduct a Display Screen Equipment Assessment or a Vehicle Ergonomic Assessment to remedy the issues and help an employee to avoid missing work.
