This year, we’re excited to celebrate Occupational Health Awareness Week (OHAW) from Monday, 18th September to Friday, 24th September. This special week places a spotlight on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), who are five times less likely to engage with occupational health services than large corporations. To rectify this, SOM, The Society of Occupational Medicine, is offering a phenomenal series of webinars.
