Read morePREHAB is an approach that focuses on the pre-emptive strengthening of workers to address potential physical vulnerabilities before an injury occurs. It is delivered through a thorough evaluation of your workers by one of our qualified physiotherapists who will identify specific muscular weaknesses that need to be addressed. This diagnosis leads to a customised strengthening or fitness program, designed to prevent injuries that could arise from these underlying issues.
PREHAB is characterised by a program of targeted strengthening and general fitness exercises, specifically devised following a detailed physical assessment. These exercises are customised to meet the individual needs of the worker, taking into account their overall fitness, age, exercise history and their role within your business.
A healthier, more robust workforce often results in improved productivity. Workers with higher energy levels and reduced discomfort are able to perform their tasks more efficiently and effectively.
As with many industries, the construction industry workers. PREHAB is an important ingredient in your construction workplace health program to help maintain their physical health, which can reduce the risk of injuries and health complications that can arise from the physical demands of their jobs.
By ensuring that workers are equipped with the necessary physical strength and capabilities, PREHAB can significantly lower the risk of on-the-job injuries.
Workers who are pain free often lead happier, more fulfilling lives, enabling them to enjoy leisure time with family and friends and pursue their hobbies without physical limitations.
A physically capable team, with limited exposure to modified duties, ensures that work is optimally distributed across your workforce, leading to a more efficient and productive team dynamic.
Maintaining higher levels of fitness and health can decrease the likelihood of developing chronic diseases later in life.
Employ Health’s PREHAB programs are customised to the specific needs of your business, offering both group and individual sessions. Group options can include Pilates, High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), or circuit classes, designed to accommodate small groups. For those seeking a more tailored approach, individual sessions are available, focusing on specific needs such as strengthening or targeted core exercises.
