A
WORKERS' COMP
INCREDIBLE FACT
(did you even realize this?):
A miniscule
7.4%
of your company's workforce is responsible for...
a
huge
75.6%
of your company's Workers’ Comp costs!

A
WORKERS' COMP INCREDIBLE SOLUTION
(you really need this!):
WorkFit™
PRE-PLACEMENT PHYSICAL ASSESSMENTS @
ONLY $35 (OR LESS) PER REPORT FROM OHS, INC.!
Your Workers' Comp Claims
SOLUTION is called "WorkFit™".
WorkFit™
is an
exceptionally comprehensive
physical health-history survey conducted by OHS, Inc. with
each of your new hires. It can be completed for your new-hires in 15 minutes
or less and our summary reports of the results will be delivered to your desk
the very next business day! Almost
immediately, you will begin to experience a reduction in your Workers' Comp
claims.
Over time, WorkFit™
can
help you virtually eliminate Workers' Comp claims against your company!
Here's how...
WorkFit™...is
an extremely thorough "physical fitness health assessment"
based on an
extensive health history interview conducted completely in the privacy of your new-hire's own
home or wherever they prefer. The new-hire uses their
own telephone
(or their neighbor's phone or a pay phone) and calls our special toll-free
number! WorkFit™
gives your new-hires the option of their health-history survey being conducted in English or in
Spanish!
WorkFit™...incorporates a very
specially-designed health history questionnaire that is far more
in-depth and far more comprehensive than the typical history form used by a
clinic.
Our
sixty-three (63) health-history questions are all asked and answered on the
phone. Your new-hire has a choice of being questioned and answering
in
English or in Spanish. The WorkFit™ exam
will take your new-hire only 12-15 minutes to complete toll-free in the
privacy of their own home or from any convenient public phone booth!
WorkFit™ questions are all designed to help
determine if the person you hired is physically-able to "fulfill the
essential functions of the job" for which you hired them. If, based on
their
WorkFit™
health history, they are NOT
physically fit to perform those essential functions (i.e., if, given their
particular physical
condition, the position could be unsafe or unhealthy for them)
then you are permitted under ADA guidelines to rescind their job
offer if you are unable to make reasonable accommodations for them in
your
workplace. Result: you will save your company a very likely Workers' Comp claim down the
road! The employee benefits, too, because - by NOT placing them - you
helped them avoid being placed in a
job that is unsafe or unhealthy for them!
This makes WorkFit™
Win-Win for both the employer
AND the employee!
WorkFit™...does NOT require the time, inconvenience, expense - and the delay in
reporting results - that is associated with a "clinical" exam of your new-hire. A
WorkFit™ exam called-in (i.e., "completed") by your new-hire on the day
they are hired is downloaded to our computer at 12 midnight that same evening.
All the answers are then reviewed, evaluated, and scored the next business
morning and our WorkFit™ physical assessment summary report is sent to
you by email or fax (it's your choice) that same day! Turn-around time for
you to get a WorkFit™ report on your new-hire is 18-24 business hours, max, from
the time you hired them!

WorkFit™
asks 63 questions that effectively cover 13 categories of
comprehensive physical and mental health history
and reveals any
past problems associated with them.
(NOTE:
your new-hire is clearly cautioned in written instructions and again verbally at the beginning of the questions that ALL
THEIR ANSWERS MUST BE COMPLETELY TRUTHFUL...and, that if any of their answers
are later found to be untrue or incomplete, they may be subject to disciplinary action by your
company up to and including dismissal and possible loss of any
Workers' Comp benefits for falsifying their medical
record).
You will have much more valuable information available
to determine proper
job placement
and any possible need for workplace "reasonable accommodations"
under ADA. Why? You will have a summary medical evaluation based on specific questions regarding the
following areas of a new-hire's health history:
-
Sensory Functions
(any problems with vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch? ability to read and
write in English? etc.)
-
Musculoskeletal Functions (any problems with back, neck, any joints, hands/grip?
etc.)
-
Neurological Functions (nerve problems? sense of touch/feel problems?
etc.)
-
Cardiopulmonary Functions (any history of personal and/or family heart
problems?)
-
Skin Functions (subject to rashes? easily sunburned? etc.)
-
Environmental Exposures (past exposure to ionization radiation or radioactive
substances? poisons? foul air? gases? etc.)
-
Exposure Risk Factors (past exposure to high noise environment? microwaves?
lasers? asbestos, lead, mercury, formaldehyde or other hazardous
materials? etc.)
-
Personal Health Habits (smoker or non-smoker?; any physical exercise? etc.)
-
Vaccination History
-
Past Medical Treatment History (e.g., medications? high blood pressure? any
operations? hernia? diabetes? kidney or liver disease? any treatment for
drug abuse? alcoholism? etc., etc.)
-
Disability History (any time off for injuries? how frequent? how long?
what injury or injuries involved? received any disability awards? etc.)
-
Workers' Compensation Claims Activity
(any past claims or pending claims? what type? etc.)
-
Health "Attitudes" (physical responses and "mental"
reactions to past personal illness
or injury)
WorkFit™ gets answers to 63
pertinent health questions that secure an
in-depth health history.

is
a superior Pre-placement Physical/Attitude Assessment!
Can your new-hire PHYSICALLY "perform the essential physical functions
required" by the job description WITHOUT GETTING HURT OR INJURED?
WorkFit™
will let you know up-front, prior to job placement!
WorkFit™ begins
with a physical profile system, which can utilize - but does not require - a clinic
visit. Based on the
WorkFit™
Physician's evaluation of the applicant’s current state of health,
pre-conditions, and physical ability, you are provided in writing with any placement and
accommodation recommendations that may be deemed necessary under ADA.
WorkFit™
provides you with a
permanent written record to prove to the ADA that
your company is doing its very best to comply with their requirements to
ensure "a safe and healthy work environment" for your
employees!
By the way...indications of the applicants “illness behavior” are gathered as
well! The identification of this
behavior is essential and important for later use in the “Delayed Recovery
Analysis” should this employee later become ill or suffer injury.
WorkFit™
is an incredible pre-placement tool!
WORKFIT™
IS
HIGHLY EFFECTIVE
AND
INEXPENSIVE (40-65% LESS THAN A CLINIC VISIT)!
