Tradie National Health Month – 2020

It’s the end of Tradie National Health Month, so we have one thing on our mind: making workplaces safer for tradies.

Did You Know?

• Tradies account for 60% of all injury and muscle disorders across all occupations
• Tradies account for 39% of all medical conditions across all occupations
• Tradies experience an average of 5.4 weeks lost work time as a result of serious injury claims

However, a safe workplace is about more than just physical safety. It’s about being mentally healthy too.

Workplaces that take a productive approach to physical and mental safety tend to see:

• Fewer staff sick days and injuries
• Fewer injuries keeping employees away from work
• More motivated and engaged employees
• A better reputation for your business
• Reduced turnover
