Protecting Your Company’s Most Important Assets: Your People WorkWell Prevention & Care

Your Name Company Name City, State WorkWell Prevention & Care’s proprietary decision support tools, global network of health professionals and international research team offer an integrated approach to pre-work physical screening, workers’ comp program management and return-to-work plans. Services are delivered through the company’s worldwide Quality Provider Network of over 10,000 certified physical therapy & occupational healthcare professionals. WorkWell’s proprietary methodology provides proven techniques that meet the challenges of measuring, managing and reducing workplace injuries.

Keeping workers healthy, at work and productive is important to your business The ability to hire better employees than your competitors puts you at a distinct competitive advantage. The ability to keep those employees at work and productive is also critical to business success. Healthy workers means meeting your customers expectations and delivering your products and services “on time” and “on budget”. Workplace health is essential to keep down the escalating cost of workers compensation and health insurance premiums.

your employees, lives within your business walls. The Cost of Legacy Thinking 100% of the workers compensation risk, your employees, lives within your business walls. Up to 98% of the solution dollars, workers compensation medical and disability costs, are being spent outside the company after the injury occurs. Addressing productivity and injury management issues the old way just doesn’t add up to good business.

We consider injury or illness from work activities to be a quality issue. Payment of workers compensation benefits, and lost time due to injury then are “failure costs”. The cost of fixing this failure increases exponentially in both money and time, the longer you wait to address it.

Ten occupations accounted for 1/3 of the cases requiring recuperation away from work; this includes Truck drivers, health care professionals, non-construction laborers, service sector employees, cooks, carpenters, manufacturing/assemblers, construction laborers, janitors Sprains and strains, most often involving the back, accounted for 43 percent of injuries and illnesses resulting in days away from work. http://stats.bls.gov/iif/oshwc/osh/case/osnr0019.pdf

A Logical Approach Sets Us Apart Best practice firms like GE, Alcoa and Dupont, are now applying increased resources to loss prevention and stay-at work programs. By re-apportioning budgets to focus on quality, prevention and fixing “failures” early, some companies have experienced savings of 50-90% on workers compensation costs.

Our approach to workplace health intervention: Professional therapists for medical and ergonomic intervention to: Prevent injuries Intervene when work activities bring on symptoms or problems—before there is a need for time off work Test objectively the worker’s physical abilities Develop work rehab programs that increase the employee’s ability to return to regular job duties. The approach is based on objective methods that have been tested and proven to reduce worker injury and disability through WorkWell Prevention & Care. Numerous published research studies confirm method reliability and validity.

Our Science-based Approach Delivers Results Experienced medical professionals that partner with you to design, implement and improve your workers compensation program, with services that include: Pre-Work Screening Job Matching Systems Job description and analysis Stay-at-Work/ Return to Work Programs Risk of Injury Assessments Ergonomic Interventions & Assessments Employee and supervisor coaching/training Written Program Development Safety Committee Participation
