WorkHealth

WorkHealth checks provide workers with the opportunity to receive a free, convenient and confidential health check in the workplace.

By participating in these checks, workers will learn more about their risk of heart disease and Type 2 diabetes. The checks look at factors that impact personal health such as diet, exercise, smoking and alcohol consumption.  Each check takes about 20 minutes, with feedback and advice provided immediately based on results.

Eligibility

An employer is eligible to apply for health checks if they are a  Victorian business or have Victorian based operations and pay a WorkSafe Injury Insurance premium, or are an approved WorkSafe self-insurer.

Latrobe Community Health Service (LCHS) provides WorkHealth checks to businesses across Gippsland.
