Employee Health Information
Important Changes to Meet Important Needs
As of July 1, 2011, all UK HealthCare workers will be required to visit Employee Health during the employee's birth month. This is required of those who have been to Employee Health in the past and those who have never been. Even if you are not due to return to Employee Health at that time, you must visit Employee Health during your birth month for compliance verification and tracking. See below for detailed changes.
The University Health Service Employee Health Program provides the following services:
