Constituting a Medical Board for Employee Assessment
You may constitute a Medical Board comprising 3-4 doctors from the local area and direct the employee to present themselves with all medical records for assessment of their suitability. The Medical Board should be provided with a self-explanatory note, including the medical history of the employee. Based on the medical opinion rendered by the Board, a decision regarding the case can be made, and an appropriate order issued.
