Occupational Health
Companies operating outside their homeland or remote areas often face unfamiliar challenges. Large amount of literatures estimate that one out every three failed international employee assignments is due to medical or family issues, leading to huge direct and indirect cost to companies.
Many of the health problems suffered by assignees are preventable if identified early prior to deployment. That’s why companies need to make sure their employees are medically fit for work assignments and are properly supported while they are on such assignment.
