An effective occupational health program saves companies money in lost time, unnecessary medical care, and workers’ compensation claims, while also improving the health and wellbeing of employees by treating work-related injuries and illnesses onsite. Medcor provides cost-effective, custom occupational health solutions to ensure a safe and healthy working environment.
Occupational Health Meaning and Objectives According the World Health Organization (WHO)
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the purpose of occupational health is to promote and maintain the highest degree of physical, mental and social well-being of workers in all occupations. Medcor’s services help fulfill those objectives with a customized occupational health solution that can include:
Clinics
Onsite clinics are a game-changer when it comes to work related injuries. When an employee is injured on the job, they can get appropriate care without leaving work or going to an offsite medical center. This saves time, hassle and money. Having a clinic onsite also promotes health and wellness with preventive care like physicals and flu shots, creating a safer and healthier environment for all your workers.
Triage/Telehealth
Injury triage helps injured or ill workers get the right care at the right time and in the right place. Optional telemedicine service gives you access to Medcor’s physicians for the best care recommendations.
Health Security
Medcor’s Health Security division was developed during the COVID-19 pandemic and companies engage Medcor to keep their workplaces safe from infectious illness.
