Occupation Health Services in Europe (Switzerland and Germany)

Does anyone have any insight about how I can locate Occupational Health Doctors in Germany and Switzerland (English language preferred). I desperately need to find a Doctor for several cities in Germany and and Geneva and Zurich. A referral to a good service would be much appreciated?
Thanks

Your organisation in Germany will belong to their trade association (Berufsgenossenschaft) who will also provide their employer liability insurances. These organisations have their own health and safety specialists, including occupational physicians. These should be your first call. Going outside the trade association could lead to problems with insurance, claims, etc.
If you want more about Germany and how health and safety is organised PM me with your contact details.

Paul, I'm a German Health and Safety Adviser and work closely with several Occupational Health Doctors. The German terminoligy is "Betriebsarzt (BA)" and a quick google search will come up with a list in your area. Well known providers of this service are TÜV & BAD and all of their BA's are recognised by the Berufsgenossenschaften. Let me know if you need more assistance.
