Prevention

We begin with the understanding that all injuries are preventable. From distribution centres to corporate offices, the key to creating a safe work environment for your employees is early risk assessment and prevention. Through analysis, assessments, workshops and education, we develop practical, in-depth solutions to prevent costly injuries and keep your employees happy and healthy.

 

Pre-Employment Functional Assessments

Evaluate candidates’ fitness before they begin work, minimising their risk of injuries. Identify and record potential employees health status, and fitness concerns that may impact on the person’s ability to carry out their role safely. Match the physical abilities of workers with the physical requirements of the role and the work environment.

 

Workstation Audits

Collaborate individually with staff to develop the safest environment and work practices based on best practice guidelines for ergonomic computer workstation set-ups.

 

Manual Handling Recommendations and Workshops

Communicate biomechanically sound principles and practical techniques to minimise injuries.

 

Pain and Discomfort Workshops

Educate employees on how to understand and safely manage pain, report issues in early stages and participate in maintaining their own health and safety.

 

Ergonomics, Including Job Task Analysis, Risk Assessment and Design

Examine work activities to identify, evaluate and minimise work hazards. These include general ergonomic principles, optimising working postures, education for use of sit stand workstations and daily movement guidance. Observing ordinary users in action also helps understand in detail how they perform their tasks and achieve their intended goals. The end goal of these processes is to design the work environment to fit the worker, preventing injuries.
