What is COHPA doing?

Recently COHPA has been active politically in trying to represent the interests of the commercial OH providers to Dame Carol Black, Government and key bodies in the industry.  We have met with Dame Carol and Ministers from DWP /senior HSE (etc) to put our views across about the future of OH.  We hold seats on Dame Carol's select committee for OH and the UK Council for Occupational Health.

To support membership we continue to organise block discounts for Insurance,  Recruitment services, traning and consulables.  The Board has set up working groups, each led by a Director, with an end goal to make membership pay for itself.

We will continue to offer members free seminars on subjects of interest.  We will repeat our popular series on VAT and OH services and will also look at seminars on IT awareness (such as data encryption and maximising internet marketing).  COHPA's recent AGM was attended by over 100 representatives from 70 different OH providers and has receved tremendous feedback.

Overall, COHPA is making good progress in getting the views of the commercial providers to a higher level, helping to be instrumental in determining the future for our industry.  We do need to be able to tell ministers and others that we represent as many OH providers as possible, in order to demonstrate our credibility.  We also need members to take part in the activities we are pursuing and add their influence to the association.  Therefore, your membership would be important, valued, and give your company a chance to influence the future developments in OH.
