Description:
Health improvement as an injury prevention strategy may be new to some, but injury-prevention experts agree that the only way to achieve and sustain a zero-injury work environment is to embrace health improvement as an injury prevention strategy. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) calls this broad, integrated approach to safety Total Worker Health®.
Studies show that a healthy, fit individual is more alert and able to respond more quickly to unexpected events. This means he or she is less likely to be injured. In addition, studies show that a healthy, fit person who does suffer an injury typically recovers more quickly Including better overall health in your safety plan is the best way to have zero workplace injuries. Total Worker Health® isn't rocket science; it just takes a little planning. This presentation will guide you through the basic steps to having a successful Total Worker Health® journey
