Throughout Australia, our Era Health professionals provide ergonomic and risk assessments to companies to help make sure their workers are safe, to ensure absenteeism stays at a minimum, and to dramatically lower the risk of compensation claims.
Jobs where manual handling plays a role can be quite dangerous over an extended period of time. Incorrectly managed, your staff may gain debilitating repetitive injuries that will warrant devastating compensation claims. With our help at Era Health, you can put a stop to this and so much more.
