EMMA provides the key link in the chain for occupational health service providers. EMMA simplifies and streamlines relationships with key clients and guarantees data security as well reducing inevitable human error.
The following key features demonstrate EMMA’s revolutionary approach to occupational health:
Management portal
EMMA has a unique login portal allowing client HR and management to update their own employee information. They can add or remove employees as well as updating details and viewing invoices, charges or health reports. All the information needed by the client can be contained within this portal.
Forms and questionnaires
Pre employment health screen forms and other questionnaires are fully customisable and can be designed to the specific requirements of each client.
Reporting
The portal provides clients directly with outcome reporting for employees both aggregate statistics and personal reports from health screens. This allows clients to monitor and track the health of their employees to reduce sickness absence. If an employee is regularly ill then the client can book them in for health check using the login portal.
Online booking
Through the login portal EMMA encompasses direct online booking. The web based system allows HR to book employees in for a health check. The client will be able to see a selection of available appointment slots and book one on behalf of an employee. After booking the employee can be automatically sent an email with details of their appointment.
Outlook integration
The system syncs with Outlook in order to keep track of employee appointments.
Simply put, EMMA acts as an information portal between occupational health providers and their clients. Instead of health providers, companies and their employees regularly having to exchange sensitive information, often putting this data at risk, each party must only enter or retrieve data from EMMA. The intuitive online portal simplifies this experience for the client and allows occupational health to slot into the client’s daily HR functions with ease.
