Fortnightly bus company medical session – Cotswold Medicals Ltd
Views: 291
We are looking for a doctor to do a fortnightly occupational health session for a bus company in Leicester. The sessions are on the client’s premises and last for six hours.
The work is a mixture of management referrals and DVLA licence renewal medicals.
The referrals are usually because an employee is off sick or because they are having health problems affecting their work. The company are usually wanting some more information about why the person is off work and when they might get better, and whether there is anything they can do to help.
The session would typically consist of two or three referrals and three or four DVLA medicals.
We don’t require any occupational health experience as we give a lot of training and support. Our reports are always reviewed by a second doctor before being dispatched.
We currently have around 40 doctors doing sessional work for us and some of our doctors have been with us for 15 or 20 years (24 years in one case!)
The work is self-employed meaning that the doctor is free to accept or decline any particular weeks (although it obviously makes life much easier for both parties if we get into a regular long-term routine).
We pay £92 per hour for the duration of the session, although remember that as this is a self-employed role, medical indemnity costs would need to come out of that.
You might like to have a look at our website although this only promotes the drivers’ medicals side of our work: www.driversmedicals.com
Also our Trustpilot reviews have a lot of nice feedback (and a rating as the best medical examiners in Britain): https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.driversmedicals.com?sort=recency
We run the business on a social enterprise model and we give several hundred thousand pounds a year into our linked charitable trust to support projects around the world.
To express an interest or find out more, please contact Dr Phil Thornley on 07976 716008 or phil.thornley@cotswoldmedicals.co.uk .
The start date is not critical but some time in the next few weeks.
