Early intervention physiotherapy
From July 1 2023, all members have access to our early intervention physiotherapy program, which assists with managing workers experiencing aches and pains that are affecting their ability to do their work.
Early intervention is about identifying and responding to warning signs and reports of accidents and incidents in the workplace. Responding early can reduce the likelihood of a worker becoming ill or injured, taking long-term sick leave, or workers' compensation absences. Ensuring early access to treatment has also been shown to reduce the duration and severity of an injury or illness, enhancing recovery and facilitating an early return to work, resulting in lower claims costs and increased productivity.
We've partnered with Biosymm, a highly experienced early intervention specialist, to provide local government staff with fast physiotherapist access.
