Occupational Safety, Health and Rehabilitation Specialty Group (OSHRSG)
Occupational Safety, Health and Rehabilitation Specialty Group (OSHRSG) is a group of HKPA members with a special interest in Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) in workplaces and work rehabilitation.
Physiotherapy in OSH is about fostering a safe working environment and minimizing the risks and hazards at work. Through conducting the risk assessment on the workplace and individuals, physiotherapists can provide professional advice on safe working practices with proper equipment and ergonomics. Besides, we also help injured workers return to work through treatment and re-training. If the worker could not successfully return to work with full function, physiotherapists would negotiate with the employers for potential work adjustment.
OSHRSG has the following objectives:
- To keep our members up-to-date with the latest knowledge, development and study opportunities in the field of Occupational Safety, Health and Rehabilitation (OSHR)
- To raise public awareness by promoting the proper ergonomics and OSHR information through various means, including media interviews, health carnivals, talks, etc.
- To liaise with other related local and international associations and organizations to uphold OSH standards in Hong Kong
