SEQOHS Accreditation: Standards & Benefits for Occupational Health

Clarity Occupational Health is accredited under the Safe Effective Quality Occupational Health Service (SEQOHS) scheme, the nationally recognised accreditation scheme for occupational health services developed by the Faculty of Occupational Medicine.
This independent accreditation demonstrates that our people, processes and governance have been assessed against nationally recognised standards for quality, safety and effectiveness, giving our clients confidence in the occupational health services we provide.

What is SEQOHS?

SEQOHS is a professionally led accreditation scheme for occupational health services. It is based on published standards that define the expected quality requirements for occupational health providers across areas including governance, information governance, staff competence, facilities, clinical practice and relationships with employers and workers.
Occupational health providers must demonstrate that they meet all relevant standards before accreditation is awarded and continue to demonstrate compliance through regular assessments.

Clarity’s SEQOHS status

Clarity Occupational Health has recently successfully achieved its five-year SEQOHS reaccreditation, providing independent assurance that our occupational health services continue to meet nationally recognised standards for quality, governance and clinical effectiveness. To maintain this accreditation, we undergo annual surveillance reviews, with our next five-year reaccreditation due in June 2031.
Maintaining SEQOHS accreditation requires us to demonstrate ongoing compliance with the published standards through annual surveillance reviews and continual improvement activities. This provides our clients with independent assurance that our occupational health services continue to meet nationally recognised standards for quality, governance and clinical effectiveness.

To achieve and maintain SEQOHS accreditation, we must demonstrate that we:

Have effective governance, leadership and business probity arrangements.
Manage information securely and confidentially, including clinical records and personal data.
Employ appropriately qualified, competent and supported staff who maintain their professional development.
Provide suitable clinical facilities, equipment and resources to deliver safe and effective occupational health services.
Work effectively with employers, workers and other stakeholders, providing evidence-based occupational health advice and services.

These standards are assessed regularly to ensure we continue to meet the requirements of the SEQOHS accreditation scheme and demonstrate our commitment to continual improvement.

For employers, choosing a SEQOHS-accredited provider demonstrates due diligence when selecting occupational health services and provides independent assurance that the service has been assessed against nationally recognised quality standards.

For employees, SEQOHS accreditation provides confidence that occupational health services are delivered within a framework focused on quality, clinical governance, confidentiality and continual improvement. It demonstrates that the service is independently assessed on a regular basis against standards developed by occupational health professionals.

SEQOHS sits alongside Clarity’s ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 certifications as part of our wider quality and governance framework. Together, these externally assessed standards support a consistent approach to quality, governance and continual improvement, helping us deliver high-quality occupational health services whether delivered on-site, remotely or from one of our clinics.

Our SEQOHS accreditation provides clients with independent assurance that our occupational health services are regularly assessed against nationally recognised standards for quality, governance and clinical effectiveness. Further information regarding our accreditation is available on request.
