As many workers face increasing health challenges — including mental health struggles — as well as difficulty finding the time to prioritize their wellness, workplaces are grappling with the significant risk this poses from a safety perspective.

“Workers who are not feeling mentally and physically their best are at a greater risk for workplace accidents,” says Melissa Manion, director at Medcor Canada. “By implementing a variety of occupational health solutions, employers can take steps to support worker health and wellness and improve workplace safety.”

Maintaining health and wellness in industrial workplaces is not just a legal obligation but a fundamental aspect of building a thriving, productive workforce, and in environments where physical labor and high-risk tasks are routine, the well-being of employees directly correlates with safety and efficiency. In an upcoming webinar, From the Inside Out: Ensuring Health and Wellness in Industrial Workplaces with Onsite Clinics, Manion is joined by colleague Koren Waines, Manager of Mental Health & Well-Being at Medcor Canada, to share valuable strategies for implementing programs to improve worker health, including practical approaches for setting up and managing these programs. By prioritizing health and wellness, companies can reduce injuries, enhance morale, and increase productivity — ensuring that workers have immediate access to comprehensive healthcare services is vital to addressing health issues promptly and effectively.

“By offering onsite healthcare services, employers can bolster worker health and improve workplace safety,” Waines says, adding that through real-world examples and best practices, the webinar will delve into the positive impact of onsite care on worker health and organizational efficiency.

The duo will also help attendees understand the importance of providing a full spectrum of health services, including immediate first aid, ongoing physical care, and mental health support, directly at the workplace; learn practical approaches for setting up and managing onsite clinics, tailored to meet the specific needs of industrial work environments; discover how onsite healthcare services can lead to improved employee productivity and reduced downtime by addressing health issues promptly and effectively; and explore the flexibility and benefits of mobile and remote treatment options, ensuring even the most remote workers have access to essential healthcare services.

Medcor Canada's mission is to provide high-quality, cost-effective health and safety solutions across various industries and the upcoming session is designed to equip you with the knowledge and tools necessary to set up and manage onsite clinics tailored to the unique needs of industrial environments.

“Receiving holistic healthcare directly at their place of employment is a gamechanger for workers,” says Manion. “Join us to learn how investing in onsite clinics can transform your workplace from the inside out.”
