Staffordshire County Council requires a range of organisations/individual professionals to complement our employed Occupational Health and Health and Safety professionals to deliver a range of prevention and early intervention support services to the workforce under a Framework Agreement.
The use of a Framework Agreement for the provision of early intervention support to employees will allow the Council to have a range of competent providers offering a wide range of skills and services. There are no guaranteed levels of referrals per provider.
