WorkSTEPS
Our WorkSTEPS program offers a series of ADA complaint employment tests that are scientific and objective. These tests establish baseline information on each candidate, and help insure that they are appropriately matched to the physical demands of the job they are being hired to perform. Information collected during these tests is invaluable to employers in both the hiring process and the post injury management of workplace injuries. A study conducted by the University of Massachusetts reveals that 10% of workers in America today are physically incapable of safely performing their job tasks, accounting for 75% of all expenses related to workplace injuries. WorkSTEPS identifies these at risk workers, protecting employees or prospective employees from unnecessary injuries, and protecting employers from the expense related to the prevented injuries.
What Can An Employer Expect From WorkSTEPS?
- Cost Reductions: WorkSTEPS is a proven method of reducing expenses associated with workplace injuries. Employers currently utilizing WorkSTEPS comprehensive testing are reporting reductions of 50% from their previous year’s work injury costs, and some companies are experiencing reductions exceeding 80%.
- Cost Effectiveness: By eliminating one carpal tunnel surgery, one back injury and one fraudulent claim per year, an employer could save as much as $84,000 or more in medical expenses and as much as $275,000 or more in other related costs.
