“When I first decided to start up Precede OHS, it wasn’t just about launching a business, it was about making a real difference in the way workplaces care for their people.
What I saw time and time again, was a gap between what employees needed to stay both mentally and physically healthy, and what many organizations were prepared to offer. Too often, occupational health is treated as a box to tick, rather than a tool to support people and strengthen companies.
That realization sparked a passion in me. I knew there had to be a better way, an approach that didn’t just help businesses stay compliant, but actually helped them thrive by investing in their most valuable asset: their people.”
Why Occupational Health Matters Now More Than Ever
In today’s fast-paced, high-pressure work environment, prioritizing employee health is no longer optional, it’s essential.
The awareness around mental health, and physical safety, has never been greater. Employees expect more from their employers, and rightfully so. Companies that invest in occupational health services are seeing the results: increased productivity, reduced absenteeism, stronger retention, and happier, more engaged teams.
When people feel seen, supported, and safe at work, they don’t just perform better, they stay longer, contribute more, and help create a culture that attracts top talent.
Going Beyond Compliance: Proactive Health
Occupational health today is about so much more than responding to injuries or ticking regulatory boxes. It’s about prevention.
At Precede OHS, we believe in proactive strategies like pre-employment medical testing, routine health surveillance, and wellness programs, all designed to fit your business’ needs and identify risks early. These services don’t just reduce injuries and long-term illness; they foster a workplace culture that puts well-being at the center of it.
How Is Precede OHS Changing the Game
At Precede Occupational Health and Safety, we’re setting a new standard for what workplace wellness can, and should, look like.
Our comprehensive approach includes not only testing services, and wellness programs, but also innovative services, such as:
- Disability Management – Supporting both employers and employees through the return-to-work process with care, and efficiency. We help reduce downtime while keeping people supported and engaged.
- First Call Telehealth – Giving employees fast, expert medical advice the moment they need it. This remote service cuts down on unnecessary WCB claims and gives peace of mind when injuries and health concerns arise.
These services are designed to meet the real-world needs of modern businesses and keep everything you need all in one place so you can focus on your team, not on finding the right services.
