This proactive approach not only reduces the risk of workplace accidents but also fosters a safer environment for employees to thrive in.

The Prudence Rehab Process
Initial Meeting:
When a customer reaches out, we will gather preliminary information about your needs and expectations for the job dictionary. This is done through a phone call, email, or face-to-face meeting.
Proposal and Agreement: Based on the initial discussion, we prepare a proposal outlining the scope of work, timeline, and cost. Once the customer agrees to the proposal, we then formalise the agreement.
Data Collection & Analysis: We will the start collecting data about the job roles within the customer’s organisation. This could involve conducting interviews with employees, observing them at work, and reviewing existing job descriptions. Sometime data collection will involve utilising tech to measure different aspects of the role. We then analyse the collected data to understand the key tasks, responsibilities, and physical demands of each job role. This will also include identifying any potential physical and psychological risks or hazards associated with the job.
Drafting & Review: Based on the analysis, we then start drafting the job dictionary. Each entry will include a detailed description of the job role, key tasks, physical and psychological demands, and any identified risks or hazards. Once the draft is ready, we will review it thoroughly for accuracy and completeness. At this point we will also seek customer feedback and make any necessary revisions based on their input.
Finalise: After all revisions have been made and the customer is satisfied with the job dictionary, we will then finalise the document. Delivery of the final job dictionary is done electronically, via a password protected email.
Follow-Up: After delivery, we will follow up with the customer to ensure they are satisfied with the job dictionary and to address any questions or concerns they may have.
In summary, job dictionaries are indispensable tools that unlock the full potential of the workplace. By promoting safety, facilitating return to work initiatives, and supporting injury prevention measures, these documents play a crucial role in creating a thriving, productive and safe work environment.
