PAT testing system

To maintain a healthy and sustainable workforce.  We offer the PAT (physical ability testing) and OREP (Occupational risk exposure profile) system.  This system is complying with the newly promulgated COM COP guidelines.  This two pronged system consists of a physical, functional and ergonomic risk assessment based upon the REBA, RULA and Snook tables to quantify the personal risk of an employee, which is then used as the basis for the PAT test.  This system has been used internationally and has proven to be one of the only non-discrimatory systems available.

Ergonomics risk assessments

We believe that a healthy and safe work environment contributes to a healthy and sustainable workforce.  To adhere to international standards (ISO 159).  We try and cover all your ergonomic needs with the following risk assessment and work station design. 

• Industrial work station with optional hand arm vibration measurements (HAV)
  
• Trackless mobile mining with optional Line of sight (LOS) and Whole body vibration (WBV)
  
• Control room operations
• Conveyor belt
• Office and desk setup
• Assembly line process

Physical conditioning and rehabilitation

Physical conditioning and rehabilitation is included in the PAT system as this is a legal requirement, if any physical or functional testing is done by an employer, the employer must provide the employee with a means to improve his/her physical condition to fulfill the requirements of the occupation he/she is employed in.  Additionally we also offer this as a service for corporate and private clients.
This includes on-site gymnasium installation and/or personal and home program for the work force.
The conditioning and rehabilitation is done by Biokineticists and Physiotherapists registered with the HPCSA.
