Health
The following are examples of Health programs provided by Sedgman.
MacFarlane Corporate Health Program
Our health and fitness is one of the most valuable assets we have both for ourselves and those close to us. The MacFarlane Corporate Health program is an opportunity for employees to be proactive about changing their lifestyle.
Sedgman provides an initial 2 free personal training sessions to all interested Brisbane based Sedgman employees and 1 free personal training session for eligible contractors. Sedgman then subsidises membership for those personnel who wish to join the program. The Corporate Health program offers:
- Two personal training sessions per week;
- Monthly seminars on Health and Wellbeing; and
- Quarterly team building exercises.
Manual Handling & Conditioning Workshop
Due to the nature of our work, certain office based employees are required to mobilise to site. When at site, these employees are involved in construction or commissioning. This results in people going from predominantly sedentary roles to physically active roles.
Sedgman has developed a manual handling and conditioning workshop to assist employees prepare for the transition in activity. The workshop consists of a manual handling component presented by an occupational therapist and a conditioning (exercise) component presented by an exercise physiologist. One hour is spent on theory and the second hour involves and exercise session. Following the workshop there is an expectation that participants continue with their exercises.
