Employers have a legal obligation to provide training when workers are exposed to potential WHS risks in the course of their work.
Working at a computer is associated with well documented risks to our physical and mental health that, if left unchecked, can have a significant impact on people’s wellbeing and the success of an organisation over the long term.

Training that empowers people to take control of their own physical and mental wellbeing will always deliver a positive return on investment for businesses via:
• A more resilient team
• Increased employee engagement and productivity
• Increased employee retention
• Increased quality of performance
• Improved safety culture
• Reduced costs of injury, claims and compensation
• Reduce absenteeism and sick leave

Training can be delivered online to workgroups of any size, in any geographical location, making it the perfect choice for businesses with remote working teams.
Our training modules can also be delivered in-person, depending on the location of your workforce.
*currently, in-person training is only available in the Melbourne metropolitan area.
