Occupational Health
The Occupational Health team is here to support our staff as we adapt to a new way of working in uncertain times and challenging situations.
Whether you are working on campus, working from home or both, it's important to have your workstation set up correctly. Please see here for guidance on correct workstation set up and complete the Workstation/DSE Assessment.
