Together with us, you can find ways to reduce work ability risks and improve work ability so that you can successfully manage not only your company but also your employees’ work ability.

Co-operation with Ilmarinen

We actively provide information, tools and support for the management of disability risks. We help you to assess your company’s work ability management regularly, so that you will be certain to achieve the management goals you have set.

We will help you understand the reasons behind disability risks. Together, we will create methods for reducing the risk and for maintaining work ability in a way that supports the company’s operations.

We target the support to customers with a larger than average disability risk and where our collaboration has the greatest impact. 

Strategic and operative collaboration

When you engage in strategic-level co-operation with us, you ensure that work ability management succeeds also at the operative level. Our competence is analysing and anticipating work ability risks and providing consulting and guidance.

As a strategic partner, our operations are steered by the following three principles:

  • We develop a work ability management system together with you instead of suggesting only individual measures.
  • Our approach is systematic. The operating principles and practical measures we suggest are evidence based and we define them clearly.
