Everyone who is of working age, according to the Faculty of Occupational Medicine, has the right to enjoy fulfilling, healthy work without endangering themselves or others.

A predetermined number of CPD points per year or during the revalidation cycle are no longer required for FOM members. Instead, doctors just need to show their appraiser that they are engaging in CPD that is pertinent to their personal development plan( PDP) and practice, as well as how it has affected them.
