10 Sep Global Health signs contract with SafeWork Health
SafeWork Health deal marks new market entry
Global Health Limited (ASX:GLH) (“Global Health” or “the Group”) is pleased to announce a new agreement with SafeWork Health (https://safeworkhealth.com.au/), a leading Australian provider of workplace drug, alcohol, and occupational health screening services.
This new market entry leverages Global Health’s SaaS ecosystem to streamline pre-employment health screenings. Pre-employment health screenings have evolved from discretionary practices to mandated compliance requirements under Work Health and Safety legislation, creating a growing market opportunity for digital health solutions.
Employers face growing responsibility to safeguard occupational health, with regular checks and pre-employment screenings critical to compliance. Workforce productivity losses cost the Australian economy an estimated $34 billion annually, reinforcing the need for employers to monitor employee health both prior to commencement and throughout employment.
This partnership reinforces Global Health’s competitive market position, servicing emerging segments which extend beyond traditional healthcare services. Increased focus on employee health and wellbeing continues to drive employers to adopt healthcare specific SaaS solutions, which support operational and regulatory processes.
The workplace health sector represents a high-growth market segment where Global Health is well positioned to capture recurring revenue opportunities.
SafeWork Health plans to see the implementation of MasterCare+ Client Management System (CMS), including HotHealth Digital Front Door, for online bookings and smart form submissions and ReferralNet Secure Messaging for safe exchange of clinical correspondence for its Occupational Health and Safety business across all sites.
Global Health, Managing Director, Mathew Cherian said:
“This agreement with SafeWork Health underscores the adaptability of our platform in meeting the evolving needs of the healthcare market. The workplace health sector is an important growth area, particularly as employers face new obligations to safeguard their employees’ wellbeing. Global Health’s solutions are well positioned to support organisations like SafeWork Health meet these responsibilities.”
