Just a tip Jennifer
When you reply we all get it at the same time so just 'Dear All' on one will do (as everyone got all four messages).
Have a good leave

From my experiences, I fully concur with Lindsey's feedback.
Some standards and guidelines on services to be expected etc, would be a great starting point.

There seems to be a lot of geographical variation, a variety of experiences and maybe some misunderstanding about what they do, who for and how. It seems generally understood that the employee needs to apply but beyond that it's a bit cloudy.

My perception is that this has changed over the years, particularly as we have moved into an age of austerity. In a previous role, I dealt a lot with one of the major banks and was astonished when they said they had just secured substantial ATW funding for an employee who didn't seem to be notably disabled or incapacitated in any way and also a few days after declaring a multibillion pound profit. This probably shouldn't have been an issue but somehow didn't seem right. My confusion was compounded when a couple of months later a much smaller and less affluent client of the provider I worked for struggled to get the bare minimum of support for what appeared to be a far more justifiable cause.

A substantial percentage of UK OH Advisers tap into this list so clear guidance on what we and an employee can expect when sending the employee in your direction would be very helpful, firstly in helping some employees and organisations in genuine need and secondly, not sending you inappropriate and spurious applications.

We wish to pass this feedback on to them, as we have established relationships with their external relations team.
