Medigold Pathway: A flexible occupational health service for SMEs

28/04/25 – Blog, Community, Mental Health, Occupational Health, Small Business Support

 

Medigold Health is excited to announce the launch of its new occupational health service; Medigold Pathway! This innovative service is designed to provide SMEs with flexible, expert occupational health (OH) support without the need for long-term commitments.

 


The importance of occupational health for small businesses

A study by Occupational Health Today revealed that many SMEs do not have HR functions and so lack professional expertise on the importance of occupational health. Many operate in fire-fighting mode when it comes to the health of their teams and rely on the support of already overstretched GPs, which isn’t exactly ideal.

Research also indicates that only 25% of small business owners feel confident regarding matters related to employee rights and employer regulations. This failure to engage with the health and wellbeing of employees can lead to a rise in work-related stress, leavism, presenteeism, and absence from work. It can also increase the burden on business owners through the loss of skills associated with increased staff turnover. But not to fear; we’ve got the perfect solution to ensure your employees’ health and wellbeing are taken care of.
