We found this conversation is a very interesting insight into Workplace Health and Safety, and the benefits of Early Intervention to support employees who are experiencing symptoms of ill health, injury, and illness.

This outlines Early Intervention programs and their ability "to mitigate the effect of those conditions on employees to either support them to remain in the workplace or support them to return to work as soon as possible."

This is such a powerful show of support for injured employees and can
✔️ Improve recovery outcomes.
✔️ Improve employee confidence in their employer.
✔️ Facilitates early access to treatment.
✔️ Allows for early workplace modification if required.
✔️ Lead to earlier return to work outcomes.

This identifies the importance of being flexible and responsive when coming to workplace health to improve outcomes for all. I would highly recommend looking at the article below, or listening to the podcast.

We are passionate in relation to assisting with improving workplace health and wellbeing, and if you are looking to review your return to work and Early Intervention programs reach out!

The advantage to an early intervention policy is that the cost of some treatment can be covered quickly & short periods of miscellaneous leave quickly
