What Is Industrial Outreach?

Kettering Health athletic trainers work as early intervention and ergonomic specialists for the industrial workforce in the community. Our industrial athletic trainers provide job assessments, injury prevention, and medical evaluations in the physically demanding work settings of distribution, manufacturing, and production.

They also provide care for employees within the OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) guidelines. This proactive approach helps reduce OSHA recordables, lost work time, and claim costs, as well as keeping company productivity high.
