Our Services
Vocational Rehabilitation Services
We offer a comprehensive suite of vocational rehabilitation services to assist injured workers in safely and sustainably returning to the workforce. These include:
Workplace Assessments
We conduct detailed on-site assessments to evaluate job demands and identify appropriate workplace modifications. Our recommendations focus on reducing risk and enhancing capacity for return to work.
Return to Work Planning
We develop individualised, structured return to work plans that align with medical advice, workplace requirements, and the worker’s capacity. Plans are designed in collaboration with all stakeholders to ensure a smooth and sustainable transition.
Functional Capacity Evaluations
We assess an individual's physical and functional capacity to determine their ability to perform specific work tasks. These evaluations inform return-to-work planning, job matching, and rehabilitation goals.
Employer and Workplace Support
We provide tailored advice to employers regarding suitable duties, ergonomic adjustments, and reasonable accommodations. Our goal is to foster inclusive and supportive workplace practices that facilitate safe work participation.
One-off Assessments
In addition to ongoing rehabilitation services, we offer targeted, one-off assessments to address specific workplace or individual needs.
Ergonomic Assessments
We assess workstation ergonomics to identify risk factors and recommend practical modifications. These assessments aim to reduce musculoskeletal strain, improve comfort, and enhance productivity in office and manual environments.
Manual Handling Training
Our interactive training sessions equip employees with the knowledge and skills required for safe manual handling. Training is tailored to the specific tasks and environments of your workplace to minimise injury risk.
Activities of Daily Living Assessments
We evaluate an individual’s ability to complete essential daily tasks following injury or illness. Recommendations may include equipment, home modifications, or strategies to improve safety and independence in the home environment.
Job Analyses and Duties Manuals
We assess the physical, cognitive, and environmental demands of specific roles to support injury management, return to work planning, and recruitment. Job Analyses are conducted onsite in consultation with employers and workers to ensure accuracy. Following the assessment, we can develop detailed Duties Manuals outlining key responsibilities, task requirements, and suitable duties. These documents assist in matching workers to appropriate roles, identifying suitable duties during recovery, and supporting safe work practices.
