Wellness and Prevention
Wellness programs in the workplace are a wonderful way to
increase the health and well being of your employees. Some benefits to
implementing a program are: decreased healthcare costs, increased worker
productivity, less time lost from work, lowered injury rates, and increased
employee health and morale.
Starting a Wellness Program can be a rather
overwhelming task. Some good questions to ask are:
- What does my population look like?
- What are my employees health challenges?
- How do we maintain confidentiality of health information?
- How do we motivate employees to participate?
- How do we increase the success rate of our program?
OHN has years of experience in all aspects of
workplace wellness programs. Our knowledgeable staff can
develop, implement, and administer a Wellness Program that is just
right for you. We have the tools to help you succeed.
Prevention of work injuries and time lost from
work is another important part of what we do at OHN. Our goal
is to provide valuable information and instruction to employers and
employees on how to have a healthier, safer work environment.
We accomplish this by offering work station evaluations and plant
walk-throughs. Another valuable service we are able to offer
are education seminars for employees. Some topics include:
Repetitive use injuries and prevention, Back health, Nutrition,
Smoking Cessation, Weight loss, and many others.

Respirator Fit
OSHA has modified its requirements for Respiratory Protection in the
workplace. The OSHA code of regulations 29 CFR 1910.134 states, "A
respirator shall be provided to each employee when such equipment is
necessary to protect the health of such employee... The
employer shall be responsible for the establishment and maintenance
of a respiratory protection program...shall cover each employee
required by this section to use a respirator."
There is a lot involved in establishing a
Respiratory Protection Program for your company and we are equipped
to help you with each step. We can develop and implement your
policy and provide the required examinations and respirator fit
testing. OHN will train your employees how to don their masks
and keep them in good working condition.
OHN provides Quantitative Fit Testing for both
Full and Half Mask. The brands we test are North, 3M, MSA, and
N95.

OSHA website for more information on standards for respirator
use or contact OHN.
