WorkFocus Australia

Building better lives for Australians through work and health

We understand for some employers this may be their first workplace injury, and they will be concerned about the impact an employee’s injury will have to their business and how they will navigate the rehabilitation process. Our SME Program has been uniquely designed and is delivered by experienced Injury Management Consultants, to provide tailored support to small and medium sized employers to minimise business disruption and ensure the successful rehabilitation of their employee.

Our consultants have helped more than 100,000 employees to get well and working since 1989, across every corner of Australia and in all industries.

1 24-hour rapid response

An experienced Workplace Injury Management Consultant will be on-site within 24 hrs to help the employer:

  • Enable an early return to work is the best way to manage a workplace injury
  • Coordinate medical appointments and treatment
  • Manage immediate impacts on workforce and productivity
  • Develop and implement an early recover at work plan

 

2 24/7 wrap around

We provider employers with 24/7 support while their employee recovers and returns to work. Our Consultant will work with the employer at a time that suits them including afterhours given their responsibilities of needing to work in the business during business hours.

3 Mobilise and implement support

There can be additional support available for small and medium employers who have a workplace injury. Our Consultant will mobilise any help available to the employer to support their business with ticking over despite their employee being off work injured. We will also review employers’ eligibility to access any support programs which may provide additional financial support to ensure employees remain at work during their recovery, and if eligible, provide help with applying. Our Consultant will walk beside the employer to implement an effective recovery and return to work program for their employee, seeing this program through until the employee is fully recovered and back at work or into alternative suitable employment.

 

4 Prepared for the future

When an employee is back at work, our Consultant will leave the employer with a tailored Injury Management Program for their business, so that in the unlikely event they have another workplace injury, they can manage it with confidence.
