Our core objective is occupational health. Our Employ Health physiotherapist’s are all full-time employees and have vast workplace health experience along with an unwavering commitment to bringing your program to life within your business.
Having worked with construction companies and a range of other industries across Australia and New Zealand, we are equipped to bring workplace health to your construction workforce.
Our powerful data management platform uses data to help inform decision making and ensure the right worker is in the right job at the right time. It provides custom reporting based on the design of your program to report and continuously improve the way we (in partnership) support your construction workers.
Our full time team of Physiotherapist are located across Australia and New Zealand and are ready to be on-site at your workplace.
Construction work, by its very nature, is physically taxing. Workers are faced with heavy lifting, awkward postures, and repetitive tasks. Employ Health’s Onsite Physio will work to equip your workers with the appropriate techniques to minimise injury risks.
Our forward-thinking health strategies significantly reduce instances of injuries, resulting in fewer compensation claims, resulting in more manageable insurance costs.
Any hiccup in a construction project can turn into delays and budget overruns. Onsite physiotherapy can dramatically reduce time lost due to health-related concerns.
When health and safety are championed, morale naturally elevates. In our experience this delivers many positive outcomes to your business that improves both culture and business performance.
Onsite physiotherapy is an umbrella term for a multitude of health and safety initiatives. These initiatives may include but are not limited to:
With its hands-on nature, the construction industry can see a wide range of workplace injuries. Our highly experienced occupational physiotherapists are season veterans at identifying these conditions, tracing back to the work-related triggers, and building plans for lasting relief.
Correctly diagnosing, a worker's lower back pain due to repetitive bending can lead our onsite physiotherapists to propose adjustments in how a task is performed. This insight pairs seamlessly with physiotherapy sessions and exercise programs to minimise potential complications.
Repetitive tasks, a common feature in construction, amplify the susceptibility to RSIs. Employ Health’s approach leads to results that satisfy both the individual worker and the workplace..
