A year ago I had the great privilege of taking the helm of our innovative private health services consulting branch Nabenet Health and I can say it has been extraordinarily satisfying to support and work with a multitude of Victorian and interstate employers to assist them in achieving their workplace health and wellbeing goals. Additionally from a career development perspective it has afforded me further insight into developing and managing a key business unit.

Some of our highlights in 2018 were;

• Providing over 4000 flu vaccinations,
• Completing over 450 pre-employment physical and functional tests,
• Performing around 1000 onsite drug and alcohol tests,
• Performing over 300 hours of workstation and ergonomic workplace assessments,
• Delivering over 400 hours of onsite manual handling training,
• Performing over 200 hours of workplace task and risk analysis,
• Delivering 4 accredited Mental Health First Aid courses,
• Delivering over 150 hours of workplace best practice RTW training, and
• Delivering over 200 hours of workplace injury management consulting services, including partnering with a large regional Government employer in developing a 12 week exercise and conditioning program for a high risk work group.

In 2019 we have already been approached by a large hospital organisation to complete a pilot intervention to support high risk workers and those who have previously had a workplace injury to reduce their workplace injury risk. Another project includes partnering with a large paint organisation to develop a digital education platform where staff can access manual handling training and other workplace injury prevention resources.

I am very much looking forward to an exciting year ahead.
