If we find someone fit for work we write to the GP informing them that the individual is fit for work. The doctor is advised that they should contact the OH departments if they want to discuss the matter further. It is the role of the Occupational Health Practitioner to access capability /fitness to work not the GP or other specialists.

Subject: [OCC-HEALTH] Involving GP's in back to work plans
We are looking into how best we can get GP's on board when trying to get members of staff back to work after long term sickness. We have thought about simply writing to individual GP's to advise them of what is possible in terms of adjustments with a request that they discuss it with their patient. Do any other members of the list do anything similar? If so, do you have any letter templates that you would be prepared to share with us?
