Management Referral Form

The questions that I should like answered are, for example:

• When does Occupational Health anticipate a return to work/full duties?
• Is there an underlying medical condition affecting the employee's attendance?
• Is the employee fit to continue in the work place?
• How does the medical condition affect the employee's ability to carry out normal duties?
• What is the estimated duration of the employee's absence?
• What is the employee's predicted date of return to work?
• Is the employee's medical condition likely to affect future attendance?
• What are the employee's likely capabilities on return to work?
• Is the employee fit to perform the duties of the post?
• Will any adjustments be required to assist the employee's recovery or return to work?
• Are there any aspects of the role that the employee cannot perform on health grounds?
• Are the any further supports or interventions to offer the employee in the workplace?
• Is the employee's problem caused or made worse by work?
• Does the employee have any additional medical problems we should be aware of?
• Should re-deployment on health grounds be considered for the employee?
• If re-deployment is recommended what type of role/duties/hours would be suitable for the employee?
• Should Ill-health retirement be considered for the employee?

I confirm that I have discussed with the employee the reason for this referral and he or she fully understands and agrees to attend the Occupational Health Department.
