Occupational Health for us (food manufacturing industry) is Occupational
Health & Safety, both domains led by a safety manager and an OH manager who
report in directly to HR. The reporting structure rationale is that HR
underpins (rightly or wrongly) any actions arising from OH &S in as much as
it is a powerful interface. We have three sites in the UK and only one of
them has safety reporting through engineering.
Regarding OH & S I personally feel that the two should be hand in glove as
there is so much commonality
