Injury management for managers

Duration: 44 minutes

Overview: This course provides managers and supervisors with a better understanding of injury management, and of their role and responsibilities in relation to injury management.

We examine what injury management is as well as workplace injury management and return to work programs. We also explain how to initially respond to a workplace injury, as well as support an injured worker through the recovery and return to work processes.

Why is this course important? The longer an injured worker is away from work, the less likely they are to make a full return to work and recover from the effects of injury. Employers and organisations can also be impacted through disruption to the workflow, reduced productivity, lower morale and increased insurance.
