Staying healthy on the job

Workplace injuries need the same level of attention and care as sports injuries. That’s why our Orthopedics and Occupational Health teams collaborated to create the Orthopedics@Work program. We partner with several companies to provide expert orthopedic services in their workplace so they can help employees prevent and manage work-related injuries. The goal? Better health outcomes and performance for employees, and fewer injury-related costs for businesses.
