Rehabilitation Services & Return To Work Plans
Tasmanian Occupational Health & Safety Services provide comprehensive rehabilitation services to those whom have sustained either a work or non-work related illness or injury.
These services aim to enable an individual to proceed on a rehabilitation pathway in a safe and dignified manner and include medical management, realistic rehabilitation and return to work programmes, integrated referral systems and standardised reporting systems.
In the case of a workplace injury or illness, all of these services are usually initiated and paid for by an employer’s Workers Compensation Insurer. However, you don’t have to wait and allow others to make these decisions for you!
Early return to work is cost effective to employers and employees and psychologically and physically beneficial to injured workers. When a workplace injury or illness occurs, a return-to-work plan must be prepared if a worker is incapacitated for more than 14 days. This plan should be designed in full consultation with the injured worker, the treating medical practitioner, the employer and the rehabilitation provider. It should be realistic and achievable, ensuring that the injured worker returns to the workplace in a safe and timely manner.
Doesn’t it make sense to appoint a rehabilitation provider of your choice, to act on your behalf, to achieve the best outcomes for your business and your employees?
By nominating Tasmanian Occupational Health & Safety Services as your preferred rehabilitation provider to your Insurer, you can receive quality, comprehensive and consistent services that get results, from a company that has taken the time to get to know and understand your needs and requirements, and those of your business and employees!
