Thanks Lesley,

It looks like we're heading that way. I'm just worried that the managers will use it as an excuse to not discuss awkward issues outlined in the referral with the employee and we will pick up flak when they read it during the appointment.

Hi Richard,

I work across a large group of companies so getting a referral form back with an employee or even a managers signature is not always practical. I get a large no via email. I have a section on my referral form that the manager ticks to confirm that they have discussed the nature of the referral with the employee and that they understand what questions are being asked. I always ask the employee at the start of a consultation if they fully understand the reason for referral and have referred individuals back to the manager (in some, not all cases) if the employee is not fully aware. This works well particularly for telephone consultations.

Regards

Lesley

Hi there,

Like it or not we're stuck with OPAS and are struggling with the issue of signed consent for manaement referrals. OPAS has a system where the manager can send an electronic referral directly to the OPAS inbox for the OH departmnet to pick up. However, how do we gain a proper consent (a physical signature) without the manager having to print off the referal, getting the employee to sign it then scanning it? It seems like a pain and I'm not sure it would encourage managers with referrals.

Alternatively, does everyone always get written consent from employees, prior to appointments?

Hope that made sense...Any ideas or suggestions from people who have had similar issues?

Thanks,

Richard
