• Ensuring employees are fit for work,

• Improving and maintaining IOH’s ability to meet its duty of care obligations,

• Improving and maintaining an awareness of fitness for work responsibilities amongst employees,

• Providing appropriate assistance to overcome problems that could impair fitness for work,

• Monitoring compliance and enforcement of this Policy and its procedures, including drug and alcohol testing, and

• Providing effective, fair and constructive procedures for dealing with people who are unfit for work.
