Workplace Health and Wellbeing Fitness Programs
In Australia, businesses are required to provide a safe work place for their employees.
Our work place health, well-being and safety programs are designed to assess potential risks associated with the work environment and individuals work habits.
Our assessments consider:
- The physical work place
- The individuals
- Social contexts
- Work tasks required
From the comprehensive assessments we provide education on managing the risks and make recommendations to help your work place and its employees improve their health, safety and well-being.
Corporate Health
Workplace health and well-being
Our philosophy for work place health and well-being is to create a work place culture that promotes and maintains a safe and efficient work environment for everyone involved. We believe that every work place can improve their work environment, often utilising the resources already available and focusing on changing attitudes to health and well-being.
Most work place issues can be fully mitigated by educating and encouraging individuals to take responsibility for the health and well-being of themselves and their colleagues.
Research studies show that work places that focus on the health and wellbeing of their employees have improved efficiency and greater input from their work force and less time taken off due to illness or injury.
No new equipment!
Unlike many other corporate work health and safety providers we are not interested in making un-necessary changes or purchasing expensive equipment. New procedures and equipment often require hours of set up and education and bring new risks of their own.
We prefer to work with individuals and encourage them to take ownership for the health, safety and well-being of their work place and colleagues. We encourage a positive proactive culture, utilising the resources available, to implement practical solutions to make your work place a happier and safer.
