Services
Occupational health, delivered in English under Dutch law.
Five services cover the whole employee health file, from pre-employment medicals to long-term absence. Each is delivered in English by our occupational physicians and physicians, with structured reports your HR team can act on the same day.
Absence management
Case management of sickness absence under the Poortwachter framework, from the first consultation to the complete statutory file. We deliver the problem analysis by week six, assess work capacity as the case develops, and keep employee, employer and physician working from the same page.
What you get
- Structured medical report with clear work capacity assessment
- Return-to-work plan with timeline and milestones
- Facilitation of three-way meetings between employee, employer and physician
Consultation hours
Regular medical consultations where employees discuss work-related health concerns and seek preventive health advice. Services include scheduled appointments, telephone and video consultations, and workplace accommodation guidance without a referral.
What you get
- Professional medical advice and recommendations
- Written consultation notes and follow-up plans
- Referral to specialists when needed
Periodic medical examinations
PMO and statutory PME programmes for employees in specific roles or risk groups, with medical history review and physical examination. Designed to identify work-related health risks early and to report at group level, so the organisation learns without any individual being exposed.
What you get
- PME report with fitness-for-work assessment
- Risk-specific recommendations for employer and employee
- Monitoring schedule for ongoing health surveillance
Pre-employment medicals
Medical screening for new hires to determine fitness for specific job requirements, compliant with Dutch anti-discrimination regulations. Assessment focuses on job-specific requirements rather than general health status.
What you get
- Fitness-for-work statement for specific job role
- Recommendations for workplace accommodations if needed
- Confidential medical report with employee consent documentation
Return-to-work support
A structured plan for how an employee on longer sick leave returns to full work capacity. Dutch law requires one by week eight whenever a longer absence is expected. Ours sets out a phased schedule, task limits and progress milestones that HR can execute without interpreting medical detail.
What you get
- Detailed return-to-work plan with phased timeline and hour restrictions
- Specific task limitations and workplace accommodation requirements
- Review schedule with clear progress milestones
Who we work with
International employers who speak English at work.
York and Philip works with organisations of roughly one hundred to a thousand or more employees in technology, finance, consulting, pharmaceuticals and logistics. They operate with English as the working language, employ international teams, and need medical documentation in English that satisfies Dutch law.
They come to us because a report their HR team cannot read is a report they cannot act on. Every consultation, report and message is delivered in English, with Dutch available where a Dutch counterpart needs it.
Talk to a physician, not a sales team.
