Special Announcement: Launch of Back Together On-Site.

Monday, April 12th, 2010

I am pleased to be able to announce the launch of a new Back Together service- Back Together On-Site.

Back pain is one of the leading sources of worker’s compensation claims, costing companies hundreds of millions of dollars per year- not just in medical costs, but in lost productivity due to absenteeism as well as presenteeism (when an employee continues to work, with reduced productivity due to an underlying condition.) Kevin Marth and I have spent several years studying this problem, and have developed a comprehensive service to help.

Back Together On-Site is a service designed to help employers reduce the cost of back & neck pain to their companies through;

-A comprehensive on-site evaluation of their workplace ergonomics, resulting in a detailed report including highest ‘at-risk’ situations, and recommendations for ways to correct.

-In-service programs for employees designed to increase risk awareness.

-A custom web portal designed to provide employees opportunity to raise questions about back pain, get suggestions about preventive measures, and provide an educational resource BEFORE they develop back pain.

-And much more.

Companies will see reduced injury rates, reduced claims, and a happier population of employees.

For more information, please send an email to info@backtogether.org, with ‘On-Site’ in the subject line.

Best,

Andy
