Why does my company need an occupational medicine specialist?Virtually every company or organization with employees should consider their workers’ health and wellbeing, especially if their workplace has the potential to be hazardous. An occupational medicine specialist helps companies comply with regulations and maintain a safe work environment. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires that certain evaluations must be done on a regular basis for employees in many industries. For instance, all employees who regularly wear respirator masks need medical evaluations. You may also want to provide physical examinations for your employees, such as pre-employment or light-duty clearance exams. Drug testing is another service that falls under the occupational medicine umbrella. Partners In Safety offers the above occupational medicine services with exceptional service, solid experience and competitive prices. |
Larger companies also offer the services you provide. Why should I choose Partners In Safety?There are indeed larger health care organizations and companies that offer the services provided by Partners In Safety.
