What We Do

Through a variety of pre-employment services such as drug testing, physicals and strength testing, employers can make informed hiring decisions. HealthWorks Northwest can help by providing pre-employment drug screening, respiratory fit testing, pre-employment physical examinations, strength testing and other health and safety evaluations.

Some companies are required by state or federal agencies to comply with health and safety regulations. Such agencies include, the Department of Transportation, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and state occupational safety and health agencies such as Washington Industrial Safety and Health Administration (WISHA), or Oregon Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OR-OHSA). HealthWorks Northwest helps companies that need to comply with these regulations by providing DOT-approved random, post-accident and for-cause drug screening, hearing evaluations and hearing conservation programs, respiratory compliance evaluation and monitoring and annual physical examinations.

Our Mission

HealthWorks Northwest will provide health services to the working world in our communities. We will do this by understanding the needs of our employer customers and becoming an effective partner in meeting or exceeding their needs for health information, treatment and care of their employees.

Our Goal

Our goal is to help employers reduce worker injuries, assist with compliance of state and federal regulations, and to help companies develop a safe, productive work environment for their employees.

Our business is based on four simple facts:
1. Healthy employees are more productive than chronically ill employees.
2. It costs less to prevent injuries or illnesses than to treat them after they occur.
3. When injury does occur, employers need an effective return-to-work plan for their employees
4. In order to operate in Washington and Oregon, employers must meet many state and federal safety and health regulations, therefore, HealthWorks Northwest is their key to success. Helping employers maintain compliance with these regulations ensures that they remain safe, viable businesses.
By helping employees recognize particular health and safety risks at the workplace, HealthWorks Northwest will lower companies' health care expenditures, while raising worker productivity. Health care expenditures will decrease due to reduced medical insurance premiums, reduced absenteeism, reduced turnover rates, reduced worker's compensation claims, reduced tardiness and shorter hospital stays, to name a few.
