Frequently Asked Questions
What is the value of health checks within the workplace?
Health checks
are used to provide staff with feedback on their health and fitness,
and provide them with recommendations and assistance on how they can achieve
their health and fitness goals. The ultimate goal is to assist staff
to increase their health awareness and thus improve their health. This
in turn assists the organisation as healthier staff are more productive
and suffer less absenteeism. FitSense Australia also provides the organisation
with a Company Health Report to assist in determining the organisation's
health plan.

Why is FitSense Australia cheaper than other providers?
At FitSense Australia,
we pride ourselves on making health checks affordable to all organisations.
We do this by specialising in the delivery of health checks and thus
have well developed systems and dedicated client support and service
delivery staff that allows us to minimise our costs. For example, we
do not have sales staff but instead put our resources into client support
and ensuring your program runs smoothly. To ensure a safe and effective
service we are a member of the Health and Productivity Institute of Australia
(HAPIA) and all our staff are tertiary qualified exercise
physiologists.
Are there any additional costs for health checks?
FitSense Australia
only charges a per person fee for health checks. You will not incur any
additional fees. Our online quote will provide you with an accurate estimate
of the price of health checks. We can then provide you with a formal
quote which will also take into account your location. A small, additional
per person fee may apply to some locations.
How do I book my organisation
in for health checks?
After you have received a quote from FitSense Australia,
if you wish to book your health check program, just email or call us
and we can arrange delivery dates for you. It is recommended that you
allow at least 2-3 weeks before your health checks to ensure the health
checks can be promoted and staff have the opportunity to book in.
Can
I get assistance with promotion of my health checks?
FitSense Australia
can provide you with all the promotional material you require. We offer
both an online booking system and hardcopy booking system, depending
on your needs. The online booking system involves us setting up a webpage
for your organisation so staff can read about the health checks, book
in at a time that suits them, and complete the required questionnaire.
If you prefer a hardcopy booking system, we will provide you with promotional
letters for staff, a booking sheet for staff to book in and a printed
questionnaire form. We can also provide you with posters and material
for your newsletters.
Can I have a customised health check?
FitSense
Australia offers six types of health checks. However, if one of these
does not suit your needs, we would happily customise a health check for
you. Please contact us to discuss. Not all staff are based at the one
location. What should we do? It is common for organisations to have staff
spread over various locations. FitSense Australia can easily arrange
health checks to be conducted at various work locations. In the case
of small regional work locations, it may be more cost effective to provide
staff with access to our Online
Wellness Centre, or cover the cost of
them having a health check with their GP.
What feedback does the organisation
get?
At the completion of your health check program, FitSense Australia
will provide you with a Company Health Report which summarises the health
of your staff. This report will highlight the number of high and medium
risk staff and provide a profile for each health variable. Recommendations
will also be provided on how the organisation can assist staff to improve
their health. No individual results are reported to ensure confidentiality.
