The Occupational Health Service was unavailable from Monday 25 November to Tuesday 3 December due to a technology upgrade. As a result there is an understandable backlog of requests to process and we have limited clinical availability until Christmas. Please bear with us while we work through all requests, but be aware there may be a longer wait than usual for appointments.

University of Oxford Occupational Health has the aim to care about the health and wellbeing of employees and students in their workplace. We deliver services that support the University’s policies by seeking to prevent ill-health and the promotion of health and wellbeing in the workplace.
We work closely with other University departments, such as HR and Safety to help support the University in complying with different aspects - such as health and safety law and employment law, which form part of the University’s risk management process.
From December 2024, all emails and reports sent from the University Occupational Health Service (UOHS) will be generated and sent directly from within the new Occupational Health system (Cority). These changes will affect the correspondence you receive from the UOHS team.
