Notice Description

This tender relates to a joint procurement exercise for Occupational Health Services (OHS) undertaken by Herefordshire Council and Hoople Ltd. Herefordshire Council and Hoople Ltd understand the importance of keeping people well (physically and mentally) at work and therefore are seeking a provider who will work proactively with their employees, line managers and HR Advisers to ensure the delivery of effective OHS.
