Looking for a better way to do OH?
Medigold Health Protect is your perfect solution!
Protect offers a package of clinical support and wellbeing tools available exclusively to small and growing businesses and organisations employing up to 500 people.
All wrapped up in a simple subscription, it gives you access to a host of proactive and reactive health services. Some of these are designed to support your managers and HR teams, while others are general health and wellbeing tools to help all your employees live healthier and happier lives.
It’s our way of bringing our 25+ years of corporate Occupational Health expertise and experience to workforces like yours.
Since we launched Protect in 2020, we’ve helped scores of companies to:
- Introduce a positive culture of understanding and planning around employee health.
- Provide their teams with access to a wealth of health and wellbeing content and a host of premium wellbeing tools, typically only available to employees of larger corporates.
- Support their managers and HR teams with managing challenging sickness and absence cases.
- Benefit from director-level guidance on industry standards and statutory health risk management.
We’d love to explore how we could do the same for you.
