SUMMIT Testimonials

We are very proud of the client feedback that we receive on a regular basis because it attests to the knowledge and professionalism of our staff, and to the quality of our products and services.

“Since implementing the SUMMIT tool, we have been able to rapidly increase the pace at which we can return injured employees to work.  The Doctor’s letter and checklist is a great tool to enable the Doctor, the employee, our Rehabilitation and Return to Work Coordinators and workplace Supervisors to have comfort that not only are duties suitable but the duties are formed based on medical opinion.  This helps all parties to be united in the return to work activities.  I highly recommend SUMMIT as a way to improve return to work outcomes.” Paul Amos, People Relations Manager -  The Co-op, Heart of the Barossa

"Pinnacle Workplace Consultants have put together a one stop shop to bring together our job dictionary, doctor’s letter, photos and videos in one place!  For example, using a link provided by Pinnacle, for access by our EHS team, video footage of job tasks can be viewed by clients, doctors, rehabilitation providers and employees to understand the physical components of a specific role.  We can utilise this information for our pre-employment providers so they too can understand the physicality of the roles for which we seek candidates.  This information is supported by the job dictionary, which has more comprehensive information available.  Rehabilitation providers, and anyone else we choose, can be provided a link to the SUMMIT program.  For rehabilitation purposes, the doctor’s letter, populates the components of the job dictionary and allows a series of tick boxes for the doctor as to the worker’s capability.  This allows us to identify what job roles may be offered as an alternative whilst our employee is recovering from injury. We love the simplicity of SUMMIT and the fact it is supported by evidence of the job dictionary and has photos and videos – often one picture says it all!  This program provides us with immediate information to make early return to work decisions.  We believe this program will reduce our claims costs and drive preventative change." - Boart Longyear

"Following receipt of funding from EML for an updated job dictionary, we were also successful in additional funding for Summit – Musculoskeletal Risk Management Tool.
