About Our Outside IR35 Occupational Health Contract Roles
What does a occupational health contractor do?
As a contract Occupational Health, you are hired to deliver workplace health assessments, fitness-for-work evaluations, health surveillance programmes, and strategic occupational health advice to employers. Contract engagements cover pre-employment health screening, management referrals for sickness absence, Display Screen Equipment assessments, workplace health promotion, and compliance with statutory health surveillance requirements under COSHH and other regulations. Occupational Health contractors work within in-house OH teams at large employers, for occupational health service providers, and as independent practitioners supporting multiple organisations.
Occupational Health contractor roles require registered nurse or physician qualifications with specialist occupational health training. OH nurses typically hold an occupational health nursing degree or diploma and NMC registration with a specialist community public health nursing qualification. OH physicians hold a Faculty of Occupational Medicine diploma or fellowship. Practical experience conducting fitness-for-work assessments, health surveillance programmes, and advising managers on complex absence cases is essential. Familiarity with occupational health case management systems such as Cohort, Meddbase, or Cority is commonly expected.
What is the market like for occupational health contractors?
The Occupational Health contract market is a specialist market with steady demand driven by employer obligations under the Health and Safety at Work Act and the growing focus on employee wellbeing. The NHS, defence, manufacturing, and construction sectors are the most consistent sources of demand. Post-pandemic, the scope of occupational health has broadened, with employers investing more in mental health support, musculoskeletal assessment, and health promotion programmes. The pipeline of qualified OH practitioners is relatively constrained, supporting firm rates for experienced contractors.
What does Outside IR35 mean?
IR35 is UK tax legislation that determines whether a contractor is genuinely self-employed or working in a manner that resembles employment. When a contract is classified as outside IR35, the engagement is treated as a business-to-business arrangement. The contractor operates through their own limited company, invoices for services, and manages their own tax affairs including corporation tax, self-assessment, and VAT where applicable.
Outside IR35 engagements are assessed against three key factors: the degree of control the client exercises over how the work is delivered, whether the contractor has a genuine right to provide a substitute, and whether there is a mutuality of obligation between the parties. Contracts that demonstrate contractor autonomy, project-based delivery, and the absence of ongoing employment obligations are more likely to sit outside IR35. Since April 2021, responsibility for making this determination sits with the end client for medium and large private sector organisations.
On QualityContracts.co.uk, approximately 28% of roles with a stated IR35 status are classified as outside IR35. The proportion varies by sector and role type, with some disciplines seeing a significantly higher or lower share of outside IR35 opportunities. Each listing on this page displays its IR35 status where provided by the hiring organisation.
What occupational health roles are usually Outside IR35?
Occupational health contracts can sit outside IR35 when structured as locum or consultancy engagements with defined clinical sessions or project deliverables. Conducting workplace health assessments, producing fitness-for-work reports, or developing an OH policy framework creates clear outputs. OH consultancies and employers commissioning specific workplace health programmes hire on this basis.
How much do occupational health contractors usually earn when working Outside IR35?
Contract rates for occupational health roles typically range from £350 to £650 per day, depending on the scope of the role, required expertise, and the delivery expectations of the engagement. Rates shown are for outside IR35 engagements and reflect the gross day rate paid to the contractor's limited company before any personal tax obligations.
