We work
toward facilitating work safety and overall employee health,
rather than simply managing injury claims. This process
involves educating the employee as well as identifying risk
factors that may exist in his or her work environment. The
employee is encouraged to put education into practice at
the work place and at home. Expected benefits for your organization
include:
| •
•
•

Reduced
incidence of injury and illness.
Reduced costs associated with the above.
Improved process reliability, productivity, and quality.
Improved employee morale.
Reduced employee turnover.
Reduced absenteeism.
Enhanced OH&S performance. |
We focus
on empowerment of individuals and organizations to control
the physical performance culture. Island Assessment creates
programs and ergonomic tool-kits that are self-sustaining
and may require only periodic maintenance.
Ergonomic
services provided by Island Assessment are offered either
as one-time products and services, in the form of bundles,
or as ongoing maintenance contracts. Please call (250) 652-6464
or email us at info@islandassessment.com
