Disability Service Workplaces

Many companies who provide services to people living with disabilities  are struggling with the high cost of work related injuries, high staff turnover and have a limited budget for their health, safety and wellness initiates. Often the people working hands on with clients/patients are at risk of muskuloskeletal injuries due to the nature of the physically demanding work.
