Who makes the decision that you return to work, occupational health or your doctor? Just seen occupational health and they say that they make the decision when I should return to work after months off with work related stress, is this right I thought it would be my doctor. A risk assessment is going to be done beforehand by my line manager and HR as approved by occupational health but who will make the final decision, can anyone help?

question about occupational health and safety jobs? Does anyone know any of the top paying companies with employees that have degrees in environmental health and safety with their salaries and positions.

Thank you for everyone who took the time to read this!
Are company occupational health appointments compulsory to attend? I have been off as I have had a miscarriage, my company wants me to attend a occ health appointment, my GP is not happy with this as he believes going over old ground will not help my recovery at all and I am in the early stages of pregnancy again (and high risk), especially as my work place has made it worse by putting pressure on me. Is it compulsory for me to attend, or can I decline or get a note from my GP to decline?
