The cost of work related ill-health and injury

Figures produced by the Health and Safety Executive show in 2008/2009 that 24.6 million days were lost due to work related ill health (9 million due to musculoskeletal disorders, 11.4 million due to work related stress, anxiety and depression.) In addition to the obvious costs of sick pay, temporary cover, recruitment, potential legal fees and compensation, there is also the cost of low productivity, increased errors, loss of morale and the possibility of increased insurance premiums. The total cost to employers in Britain of workplace injuries and work related ill health is estimated at approximately £2.9 billion to £3.2 billion.

Direct Physiotherapy Intervention - Onsite Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy involvement onsite allows for rapid access to assessment and treatment and reduces time off work through injury or to attend hospital appointments. It also allows for ergonomic and workplace assessments to be carried out to reduce further problems and help improve communication with all parties involved.

Back to Work Physiotherapy Programmes

If an employee has been off work for a length of time, CTC can offer a bespoke physiotherapy programme specifically designed to aid the return of the employee to work safely. This will involve assessment of the work tasks and the design of an exercise based regime to allow safe return to the work environment.

Other benefits of Direct Physiotherapy Intervention include:

• Preventing accidents and musculoskeletal problems from occurring in the first place by working with organisations to achieve an ergonomically working environment.
• Education of departmental manager, team leaders and associates emphasising short-term and long-term solutions to poor working practices.
• General lifestyle advice on personal fitness maintenance and dietary issues. Please be aware that employees who keep fit by fitness pursuits such as running and football may need to access early physiotherapy in the case of acute injury. This is almost as crucial as the treatment of workplace injury.

Ergonomic Awareness in the Workplace

Ergonomics is a science concerned with the 'fit' between people and their work, ensuring the tasks, information and environment suit each worker and takes into account their capabilities and limitations. By assessing ergonomic factors and the interaction between them, a safe, effective and productive work system can be achieved. To ensure an appropriate 'fit' is made between the person and their work, environmental, physical and psychological aspects need to be considered.

Benefits of Ergonomics for Your Business

Ergonomics is not just about making your employees feel comfortable and happy. Ergonomics is also about helping your employees to work more efficiently and therefore be more productive.

An ergonomically designed workplace can save you money by reducing work related illnesses and reducing work related accidents. Moreover, an ergonomically designed workplace can also lead to increased efficiency and increased productivity.
