Job Site Analysis

At Nova Care Occupational Solutions, the Job Site Analysis is an on-site evaluation of various aspects of an occupation within a work setting. This analysis serves as a valuable tool for employers and insurers in assessing an employee's readiness to return to work post-injury or in determining necessary job modifications. For health care professionals, these evaluations can be helpful in individualizing the client’s rehabilitation plan so that care is focused on those areas that are important for return to work. Below outlines the examinations and assessments that may be conducted:

Assessment of the physical and cognitive demands of the job: Understanding the specific physical requirements essential for successful job performance is crucial.  

Identifying tasks that may lead to overexertion or determining if an employee lacks the capability to perform different aspects of the job.

Evaluation of work environment safety: This involves examining potential safety hazards or risks that could lead to injuries or decreased performance. Factors such as noise levels, lighting conditions, and temperature variations are taken into consideration.

Analysis of common worker habits: Certain habits may increase the likelihood of injury, and identifying these can help implement preventive measures.

Ergonomics: This involves an evaluation of equipment and tools used onsite and their suitability for the work being completed.
