Our "Why"
Safety
The team of occupational therapists at Adira Ergonomics Safety and Workplace Rehab is dedicated to improving safety in the workplace. Work-related injuries negatively impact one's mental health, cause unnecessary pain and stress, and be costly to the company and the employee. For example, while the average workers' compensation payout for carpal tunnel syndrome is typically between $20,000 to $30,000, there are cases where settlements can surpass this amount. For instance, in 2009, a California employee was granted a workers' compensation settlement of $372,000 for carpal tunnel syndrome (Gaylord & Nantais Attorneys at Law, 2021). Even smaller issues like "tech neck" and "text thumb" can be avoided with the right suggestions!
It is crucial to consider the potential physical and psychosocial price employees may face.
Adira Ergonomics Safety and Workplace Rehab recognizes that our employees are crucial to our success. They are the backbone of our business and part of our family. Let our working family help support the "backbone" of your working community, literally and figuratively!
What Sets Us Apart
We are a team of Occupational therapists (OT) with extensive knowledge and skills in injury prevention, physical disability, human development, and mental health. Our holistic and top-down approach ensures that the environment is safe and tailored to the individual's needs.
As OTs, we take pride in considering work-related injuries' physical and psychosocial effects on a person's well-being. The American Journal of Industrial Medicine noted that injured workers experience a range of psychosocial consequences, including anxiety, depression, and strained family relationships (Keteyian et al., 2019). Our goal at Adira Ergonomics Safety and Workplace Rehab is to improve the health equity of our communities.
