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 ..
