Return-to-Work
Assessment Package
A Comprehensive Occupational Therapy Service for Employers
The Serenity Occupational Therapy Return-to-Work Assessment provides employers with practical, evidence-based recommendations to support a safe, sustainable and successful return to work.
Unlike Occupational Health, which often determines medical fitness for work, Occupational Therapy focuses on occupational performance - understanding how a person's health impacts their ability to carry out cognitive, physical, emotional and organisational demands of their specific role.
The outcome is a clear action plan that supports both the employee and employer while complementing existing HR and Occupational Health advice.
What Makes This Service Different
Rather than simply asking "Is an employee fit to return?"
We answer:
-
What can they safely do?
-
What is preventing them from working effectively?
-
What adjustments will make the biggest difference?
-
How can managers support recovery?
-
What does a realistic phased return actually look like?
-
What risks need monitoring?
