To Assure That Workers Are Healthy, Occupational Health Is The Way!

Everyone has had a new year’s resolution at least once in their life- whether they’ve followed through or not is secondary, but everyone has had one. So, what is the resolution that you should take this year and follow through? One simple word- Health. If there’s one thing that COVID has taught us, it is that you should take care of your health and those around you. It is immensely important that we follow through on this meticulously.

I think that the infrastructure industry should keep this as their new year’s resolution as well. The working conditions of the informal sector workers can always be subjected to improvement. These conditions include psycho-social aspects as well. There should be an occupational health project set up in place for these workers.

Occupational health and safety are taken up to protect workers- both in the formal and the informal sector from the unfair and dangerous work environment. In the health aspect, especially in the infrastructure field, it should be made sure that the workers should have medical access available to them immediately. A workplace injury in the infrastructure sector could be a dreadfully emergent case that could require immediate assistance from a professional.

By law, it is mandated that a certified surgeon or an Associate Fellow of Industrial Health (AFIH) are the only doctors that have to be present on the field to take care of these workers. There needs to be an on-site clinic set-up with doctors, nurses, and an ambulance service. This on-site clinic should be fully equipped with the necessary medical equipment that will be used in case of emergencies or causalities. This will significantly increase the worker’s chance of survival if, god forbid, anything does happen. If there are any accidents, by chance, they should have access to medical attention immediately.

Plan My Health understands these needs and provides all the required around-the-clock medical services for the informal work sector- including setting up a fully equipped on-site clinic with doctors, nurses, ambulance services, and all the required medical consumables. Our ongoing project with Tata in building the parliament gives us the experience to take up any projects. So, make this your new year’s resolution and get a Plan My Health service for all your workers and your healthcare needs!
