Pegasus Occupational Health have streamlined occupational health processes resulting in improved customer service and lower resource costs
Pegasus Occupational Health is an important component of Pegasus Healthcare Group, which is a clinically led primary care specialist recruitment and reporting organisation. Pegasus Occupational Health helps organisations provide a better working environment for staff. They also assist organisations by providing guidance and promoting healthy lifestyles in workforces.
The occupational health team at Pegasus approached Cohort Software because they were looking for a modern and flexible software system that would allow them to complete departmental occupational health admin tasks quickly and efficiently.
The team at Pegasus Occupational Health currently use the Cohort SHS Questionnaires module for health surveillance clinics and the Management Referrals Module for organising referrals from HR departments and to keep on top of daily admin tasks. By using Cohort, Pegasus OH is able to identify ‘stress’ issues as a major cause of employee absence within an organisation. Because of this identification, they were able to respond by implementing a stress and resilience training course that reduced stress illness and treatment cases by 50%.
Following the successful implementation of Cohort, Pegasus OH has now achieved the following benefits:
- Generation of reports in a timely and efficient manner
- Identifying employee trends
- Saving process time and cost
- Saving on internal and external IT resources
Cohort is now used in all aspects of the service delivery at Pegasus, including the logging of appointments, storage of records and reports, management of recalls dates and vaccination dates, day to day tasks and reporting back to customers.
Simon Watson, Occupational Health Manager for Pegasus Occupational Health commented;
“We saved approximately 100% of our customers’ time with regards to the planning of health surveillance clinics by using Cohort Software: through the elimination of HR needing to keep records on employee recall dates and the reporting that Cohort can do meant Pegasus as an organisation can take the reins on the day to day planning”
