<td valign="top"><b>Welcome to </b><a href="whatb.htm"><b>Federal
Occupational Health!</b></a><b> FOH is a division of the </b><a
href="http://phs.os.dhhs.gov/phs/"><b>United States
Public Health Service</b></a><b>, our nation's foremost
health agency, created by Congress in 1798.</b><p><b>We
recently celebrated 50 years of excellence in providing
occupational health services to Federal agencies. FOH was
founded in 1946 after Congress authorized Federal
agencies to use appropriated funds for occupational
health programs (Public Law #79-658).</b></p>
<p><b>FOH grew from a few health centers in Washington,
D.C. to an impressive network of </b><a
href="contactb.htm"><b>12 nationwide offices</b></a><b>
with its main office in Bethesda, Maryland. Over 160
Federal agencies use our services.</b></p>
<p><b>Our staff of certified occupational health
professionals care for a quarter million Federal workers
annually in over 200 health centers. We provide employee
assistance programs for 1.3 million Federal employees.
Our environmental health expertise is nationally
acclaimed.</b></p>
<p><b>We take a </b><a href="serviceb.htm"><b>comprehensive
approach</b></a><b> to occupational health. In
consultation with Federal managers we design programs to
build a healthier workforce. FOH is a one-stop resource.
Our </b><a href="serviceb.htm"><b>product's</b></a><b>
include clinical services, environmental health and
employee assistance programs.</b></p>
<p><b>FOH receives no direct appropriated funding; we do
business through convenient inter-agency agreements. FOH
was awarded FRANCHISE status within the </b><a
href="http://www.npr.gov/"><b>Reinventing Government
Initiative</b></a><b> instituted by the </b><a
href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/"><b>White House</b></a><b>.
We do business like the private sector -- customer first,
no red tape, state-of-the-art information systems and
customized service. </b></p>
<p><b>We are proud of our heritage as an agency within
the </b><a href="http://www.os.dhhs.gov/"><b>Department
of Health and Human Services</b></a><b>, Public Health
Service, Health Resources and Services Administration and
Bureau of Primary Health Care. Over 50 years of
excellence as a provider of occupational health services
and still growing!</b></p>
