Hi all


Looking at SEQOHS today in Section B Information Governance I note that it
says:


"The standards for information governance are:

*1.     **The PROVIDER must maintain adequate occupational health clinical
records*

*2.     **The PROVIDER must implement and comply with systems to protect
confidentiality*



*Scope*

These standards, minimum requirements and examples of suitable evidence are
intended to apply to occupational health services in the UK, in support of
their accreditation as a provider of occupational health services.



*Not all minimum requirements apply to all occupational health services.
The relevance of minimum requirements to different types of occupational
health service is identified*. Where the standard and/or any of the minimum
requirements are not applicable, the PROVIDER must provide a signed
declaration to confirm that they are not applicable."


I understand the ISO exemption that is listed but would someone please
explain what the part in bold italics means? What "different types" of OHS
do they mean and why would the standards not be applicable?


With thanks...a wondering ..


Carr
