From Lag to Lead - Building a Smarter Injury Management System

Most organisations measure injury performance after the fact — but what if you could get ahead of the curve? This webinar examines how shifting from lag indicators to lead indicators transforms injury management from reactive to predictive, and why immediate intervention and accountability are the cornerstones of better claim outcomes. Drawing on real-world experience in a large health service, Eva will explore:

  • Why lost time and claim cost data alone keep you looking in the rear-view mirror — and what to use instead
  • How early reporting, early contact and Recover@Work shape claim trajectory from day one
  • The role of frontline managers and organisational governance in preventing psychosocial harm before it becomes liability
