Hi, I carry out pregnancy risk assessments on all new and expectant mothers. They are given a copy of The HSE's A guide for New and expectant mothers who work ISBN 0 7176 2614 8. These assessments are followed up at twenty and thirty weeks respectively, in line with the procedure I have developed. They are also reviewed following any new medical advice or needs which develop, and are able to contact me at any time should they experience any problems. Additionally, when individuals return following maternity leave they are contacted to ascertain if they have any requirements with regard to breastfeeding or expressing and storing breast milk. Hope this is helpful. Nicky Johns Health Services Manager -----Original Message----- From: Stackhouse, Amy .

My occuaptional health assignment is on pregnant women at work. I am wondering if anyone has an protocals or contact with the pregnant women in thier workplace. At the NHS trust I work for we do not have a requirement for pregnant workers to contact OH. If anyone has any other information it would be greatly recieved.
