The Supplier must also ensure that the services provided by each of the staff are appropriate to their qualification and the nature of the individual service. The Supplier shall have appropriately qualified staff in sufficient quantity to carry out the functions required. Due to the complex nature of work within SRUC, some bodies may want the flexibility to engage an OH professional at a particular level with appropriate skills and qualifications. The Supplier must ensure that their clinical staff are registered with the relevant regulatory body on the appropriate part(s) of its register(s). Where the Supplier's staff are medical doctors they will have the appropriate medical qualifications, other applicable training/qualifications and have undertaken the necessary continuing professional development stated by their Royal College/GMC. They must have General Medical Council (GMC) Registration and be able to provide evidence of this current registration.

It is a mandatory requirement that those staff who will deliver the services do not have any competence/ professional issues pending with the GMC or NMC or other relevant body/employer. The Supplier must provide an annual statement confirming this to be the case on each anniversary of the Contract Commencement Date. If the Supplier becomes aware of a competency/professional issue with regards to any of its employees, the Supplier shall immediately remove the relevant employee from the Contract and shall advise the SRUC of this action. To allow some flexibility, through the Supplier, the SRUC may wish to engage the services of a dedicated administrator for example, for the purpose of scheduling appointments. Such institutional requirements will be discussed with the Supplier as part of the mini competition process. The Supplier must provide both male and female doctors and counsellors.
