Will Smith Discusses Preventative Solutions for a Newly Created Workforce
COVID-19 has changed many aspects of the world, including the way we live and work. In response, One Call has expanded its offerings to include Workforce Wellbeing, a suite of solutions focused on safety, injury prevention, and wellness for a newly created workforce.
Will Smith, Chief Commercial Officer at One Call, recently spoke with Melissa Ross of WJCT – a Jacksonville-based NPR affiliate – about how these solutions can be a resource for companies and their employees.

Workforce Wellbeing Solutions
- Safety:
As employees return to work, we can help employers properly prepare their facilities to prevent the spread of COVID-19 through:
- Health screenings
- On-site COVID-19 testing
- Symptom management education and protocols
- Contact tracing
- Distribution of personal protection equipment (PPE) to ensure employee safety
- Wellness:
Prior to COVID-19, only seven percent of the U.S. workforce had the option to regularly work from home. The pandemic rapidly changed that, forcing millions of employees to work remotely. As a result, many are not equipped with the proper equipment or workspace, leading to poor posture, or worse, injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome and sprains/strains. Our team can provide tools and resources to prevent this, including:
- Ergonomic and workplace assessments
- Printable wellness guides
- Creation of company-sponsored wellness programs
- Injury Prevention:
The importance of injury prevention has been top-of-mind for many as furloughed employees with physically demanding jobs return to work after months of being sedentary. We can help address these concerns through:
- Work hardening and conditioning programs
- Post-Offer Employment Testing (POET)/Fit for Duty Testing to ensure employees are ready for workplace demands
