Victorian businesses spend over $2 billion each year on WorkCover premiums. Proactively investing in your workforce’s health and safety not only helps reduce these costs but also boosts employee satisfaction and productivity.

At In-House OT, we help businesses to:

  • meet obligations to identify, assess, and control workplace hazards

  • reduce WorkCover premiums and claims costs

  • pinpoint workplace risk hotspots before they become problems

We take time to understand how your workplace operates, developing customised assessments and training programs that empower your staff to take responsibility for their own health and safety.

Manual Handling Training

Manual handling includes lifting, moving, pushing, pulling, carrying, holding, or restraining an object. Poor technique is one of the most common causes of workplace injury — often costly and sometimes disabling.

Our on-site training covers:

  • identifying manual handling risks

  • correct lifting and handling techniques

  • safe use of mechanical aids and equipment

  • practical problem-solving tailored to your workplace

Worksite Assessment
OH&S / Risk Assessment

We conduct thorough task analyses to understand how your workforce performs daily duties. This process highlights potential hazards, determines risk levels, and provides cost-effective, practical solutions to mitigate injury risks.

As part of our premium service, we can also develop a Job Dictionary — a detailed record of tasks and their physical demands. This resource supports:

  • injury prevention

  • clearer communication between stakeholders

  • safe and appropriate return-to-work planning

  • reduced absenteeism and improved recovery outcomes
