3 questions
1. does your questionnaire state that it is confidential and if so
confidential to who?
2. would his LBP or VV have made any difference to your opinion on his
fitness for work at the time? Bearing in mind the nature of the job
(what ever that is - you do not say) and DDA?
3. Do his medical conditions now put himself or others at risk?
Regards
Louise

Subject: [OCC-HEALTH] With held medical info on PEQ
Hello All,
it has come to my attention that a particular employee, who has been
employed by the company since 2004, has with held medical information on
his PEQ.
He was booked into see the Company Doctor at the time of employment on
several occasions but failed to attend. Our CMO usually passes employees
fit for employment, but as he hadn't got any medical conditions, he was
passed fit by me.
The one medical condition, LBP, he has had 2 periods of sickness absence
with, in 2006 and more recently in 2007. According to his medical
report
from his GP, he has had this since 2001.
His other medical condition, VV's, he is off sick with at present with
as
he had them operated on this month. Again, he has had these for 5
years,
although the medical report states that they have become more
troublesome
over the last 4 months.
He signed the declaration, part of which states "I understand that if I
have knowingly withheld any relevant information, the company may review
my work position."
So my question is, what do I do now? Our CMO doesn't feel that he needs
to see him as there isn't any objective. Do I inform his manager that
some information has come to light regarding his medical history without
going into detail? Does it become a managerial problem?
I would be grateful for your advice.
Regards
Julie
