Save Time and Money Video Series #10

At WorkWell, we understand the significance of your bottom line. Having an onsite healthcare provider can not only save your organization money but also time for both the company and its employees.

The convenience of having onsite services means employees can receive help without having to leave the worksite, eliminating the need for driving time and waiting room delays. This not only prevents employees from losing pay due to time off for appointments but also ensures employers do not suffer from decreased productivity when employees are away for extended periods. This holds true regardless of whether the discomfort experienced is work-related or not.

Encouraging easy access prompts employees to consult the onsite provider at the onset of any issue, rather than allowing minor discomfort to escalate. With proper support, musculoskeletal (MSK) problems can often be resolved with basic first aid, eliminating the need for further medical intervention.

Furthermore, the employee receives continuous monitoring and support during the healing journey. The onsite provider's familiarity with the job site and tasks enables them to pinpoint and tackle the underlying causes of discomfort, ultimately facilitating the healing process even more effectively.

In addition to saving significant costs by reducing OSHA recordables and workers’ compensation claims, you will also experience a boost in employee morale and productivity. Addressing employee health concerns and prioritizing well-being through onsite healthcare providers not only enhances employee satisfaction but also minimizes absenteeism. This results in heightened productivity levels and decreased turnover costs for your organization.

Investing in onsite services is not only a smart decision but a crucial one for achieving your organization's health and safety goals. An onsite clinic goes beyond being a luxury; it plays a vital role in ensuring the well-being of your employees and the overall success of your company.
