WorkSafe Medics is so committed to reducing your LTI/MTI and Workers Compensation Premium that we offer, as part of our existing service an interactive training program that we call "Fit for Work Fit for Life". We are very proud of the success of this product which focuses on offering a training package that is specific to your organisational needs.

We conduct an onsite visit and take photos of work practices and behaviours of employees in action.

We then utilise this valuable information to identify high risk & dangerous behaviours/attitudes and subsequently suggest and present alternative work methods and techniques to prevent and minimise workplace injuries.

Our Team guided by our occupational doctor will:

 

	- Undertake a functional task analysis and injury risk assessment of the inherent functional requirements of performing your jobs
	- Highlight potential areas of risk and exposure and make appropriate recommendations;
