A well-designed Occupational Health Centre (OHC) is the backbone of effective workplace healthcare and safety in manufacturing plants. Unfortunately, many OHCs suffer from outdated layouts and poor designs that fail to meet legal and regulatory standards. This blog explores how a well-planned, regulation-aligned OHC design can protect your workforce, enhance care delivery, and ensure audit-readiness.

Common Problems with OHC Designs

• Non-compliance with statutory regulations such as the Factory Act and OHSW Code
• Insufficient space for conducting medical examinations and treatment procedures
• Poor ventilation and lighting, impacting patient care and staff efficiency
• Unsafe or inadequate storage of medicines and medical supplies
• Insufficient hygiene and sanitation facilities, risking contamination and infection
• Fire safety and emergency evacuation measures not properly integrated

These issues expose organizations to legal penalties, failed audits, and compromised healthcare delivery.
