As 2025 draws to a close, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks for your continued partnership and support throughout the year.

This year, we are proud to have assisted over 4,000 injured workers on their recovery journey and worked with many employers to prevent injuries and enhance their return-to-work (RTW) performance. These achievements would not have been possible without the trust and collaboration from agents, employers and injured workers.

As we celebrate the festive season, we wish you, your team, and your families a Merry Christmas and a safe, joyful, and restful break. We look forward to continuing to work together in 2026 to make a positive impact in the lives of workers and workplaces across Australia.

Behind the Scenes: Manual Handling Training Video Package

Posted by | Return to Work Articles | No Comments

We recently had the pleasure of filming a tailored Manual Handling Training Video package for one of our clients. Their goal was to create practical, engaging training content that:

  • Supports both staff inductions and refresher training
  • Compliments their existing face-to-face sessions
  • Provides a consistent, easy-to-access learning tool for their team

By investing in customised video training, they have created a resource that not only improves safety and compliance but also saves time and ensures key messages are reinforced.
If you are an employer looking for a bespoke training package to strengthen your workplace safety or onboarding process, we would love to help bring your vision to life.
Get in touch with us to discuss how we can create training that fits your workplace needs.

Special thanks to Jaclyn Murphy for her expertise in front of camera!
