Birmingham City Council’s Occupational Health Service requires the regular provision of a qualified Occupational Health Physician(s) to support the delivery of a professional Occupational Health Service to Birmingham City Council’s managers and employees and its partners, including Schools and Academies across the City and some small charity organisations. As the team operate a partial chargeable service, this stakeholder group may fluctuate in breadth and volume. Please refer to the essential criteria and service outputs required for this requirement below. Birmingham City Council Occupational Health Service is based at Ashted Lock, Dartmouth Middleway, Birmingham. The delivery of service is predominantly conducted by way of telephone or virtual consultation, except for Health Surveillance, however, where a face-to-face consultation is deemed necessary, clinics will be held at Ashted Lock. We aim to offer appointment times to meet business needs, and most appointments operate between 09:00 and 17:00 hours. There may be an occasional requirement for service to be delivered outside of these times. The service operates a non-review culture in the provision of the Occupational Health service unless the clinical need necessitates otherwise. Referral rates fluctuate throughout the year, and this contract would be called upon in accordance with these fluctuations in demand for service delivery. It is anticipated that practitioners will be called upon to complete more than the average weekly hours in busy periods and less than the average hours in quiet periods. Either party must provide a minimum of 5 clear working days’ notice of cancellation of planned work. Birmingham City Council Occupational Health Service is accredited by SEQOSH and operates within these industry governance standards. Any professional working within the service will be expected to adhere to these standards and local protocols and procedures and have a very good understanding of clinical governance which underpins such accreditation. The Occupational Health Physician’s practice will be audited in line with our practice, governance and SEQOSH standards. Birmingham City Council Occupational Health’s referrals are submitted, managed and processed within Birmingham City Council’s Occupational Health Management system, Cority. It is essential that all occupational health physicians are members of relevant professional bodies equivalent to their area of expertise throughout the lifetime of the contract.
