Corporate Massage
Corporate Massage is a compact, well-structured massage routine, which is administered in a specially designed chair. The chair is provided by the Massage Practitioner. Corporate Massage is applied with the employees fully clothed. No oils are applied. The massage routine can be easily adjusted to individual needs. Its focus is on the neck, shoulders, back, arms and hands. The Massage is of 15-20 minutes duration.
Workplace Stresses result in decreased Productivity, Absenteeism, Work-Related Accidents & Worker's Compensation Claim. "Of the 477,800 persons who experienced a work-related injury or illness during the year ending September 2000, 40% had received workers' compensation for their most recent work-related injury. Of these 189,400 persons, 36% had more than ten days off work as a result of the injury or illness, while 28% were off for between one to four days." (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2000)
Corporate Massage reduces the Rate Of Accidents/ Work-Related Injury & Increases Productivity. Its Effects are Cumulative. It encourages employees to take other steps towards Wellness.
Occupational Health and Safety legislation will change in the coming years to accommodate for aging population dynamics. Commerce and industry will be obliged to carry work-related health and medical costs of their employees, as the government struggles to supply the health and medical costs of the 'Baby Boomers. The retired Baby Boomers will live longer and and have a disproportional effect on the tax base.
Corporate massage pre-empts legislation requiring the employer to take responsibility for the mental and physical safety of staff.
The Occupational Health & Safety Act states clearly:
“The implementation of stress management in the work place is the employers responsibility under the health & safety act 1983 – Duty of Care”
It is foreseeable that people will litigate against employers for stress related illness. As an employer, one of the best defences against stress occurring in the workplace is to provide regular massages for staff. It may be enough that you regularly have massage in your workplace to disqualify potential litigation from employees.
