A PROACTIVE PREVENTATIVE INTERVENTION PROGRAM FOR OCCUPATIONS REQUIRING DRIVING OF CARS, UTES, BUSES AND TRUCKS.
Our Drivefit program strives to empower team members to minimise their risk of injuries and improve their health, productivity and well-being. The program covers vehicle ergonomics, manual handling (in and around the vehicle) and includes practical injury prevention initiatives (warm ups, stretching and self massage and a home exercise program).
The Drivefit program has 3 specific sections for:
Smaller Vehicles (e.g. Sedan, Hatch)
Larger Vehicles (e.g. SUV, Utility, Truck, Bus)
Forklift/Plank Vehicles
Completely customisable and designed for either group or individual at-risk workers the program comes with resources and will bridge the gap between theory and practice.
The Drivefit Program will:
·Raise awareness of optimal posture/movement strategies, vehicle ergonomics, strategies for working within the vehicle, manual handling and practical exercise based injury prevention.
·Highlight potential physiological risks which may arise with less than optimal vehicle ergonomics, manual handling or lack of preventative exercise.
·Engage and empower each team member with knowledge and practical skills to improve physical preparedness and awareness to address specific safety objectives.
·Facilitate the development or reinforcement of a workplace culture that supports preventative intervention objectives and company policies.
·Introduce Microbreaks exercise initiative designed to maintain body awareness, balance and reduce injuries.
