The focus of this year’s Occupational Health Awareness Week (OHAW2024), taking place from 23rd to 29th September, is to increase awareness of what occupational health is and the value it provides to workplace health. SOM has produced free resources, which you are encouraged to use, engage with and share to help amplify the week.
There will be a series of blogs written by industry professionals about topics such as women’s health at work, the value of occupational health, and career opportunities.
SOM’s new guide to buying wellbeing products or services will launch during the week.
