Strains and sprains caused by overexertion are the most common workplace injuries
Physical abilities testing can determine a worker’s current fitness to perform their employment duties, reducing the risk of occupational injury
Only the essential physical abilities required for the job are assessed, safely and efficiently, by qualified professionals in a clinical setting
We are happy to announce the donation of 5,600 COVID-19 rapid antigen tests to the Canadian Cancer Society for distribution across Canada to support their Wheels of Hope, Lodge and Camp Goodtimes programs, honouring the commitment we made earlier in the year to donate 1 Covid-19 rapid antigen test kit (containing 5 tests) for every 10 kits purchased online at COVIDdetect.ca.
We are happy to announce that we will resume conducting spirometry testing at our DriverCheck Clinics effective July 4, 2022.
This communication is to update you on DriverCheck Clinics’ temporary health and safety measures to mitigate risk of COVID-19 infections and transmissions while performing spirometry testing, ensuring the continued safety of our staff, our clients, and our operations.
We are thrilled to announce that COVIDdetect by DriverCheck will donate 1 COVID-19 rapid antigen test kit, containing 5 rapid antigen tests, to the Canadian Cancer Society for every 10 kits purchased online at COVIDdetect.ca. This partnership follows a donation of 1,000 tests earlier this year in commemoration of World Cancer Day, February 4, and comes at a time when public health restrictions are being lifted and Canadians are progressively returning to regular activities and spending more time with family and friends.
To commemorate World Cancer Day, the COVIDdetect and DriverCheck family are thrilled to support the Canadian Cancer Society by donating 1,000 COVID-19 rapid antigen tests to vital programs including the Wheels of Hope and Lodges.
Wheels of Hope is a volunteer program that provides additional support to people with cancer who need a ride to and from their treatment. Lodges are welcoming homes away from home for people with cancer who need to travel to receive treatment. It is vital that these programs continue to run safely during the pandemic and therefore testing staff and volunteers is essential.
“We are absolutely thrilled to be supporting Canadian Cancer Society” Says Connor Page , Vice President, Strategy at COVIDdetect and Maggie Dunnett, DriverCheck President, in a joint statement. “Our father, Dr. Chris Page, started DriverCheck over 25 years ago with the goal to build a healthier and safer world, and we created COVIDdetect during the COVID-19 pandemic with the same ethos to help Canadians across the country. During the pandemic, Canadian Cancer Society and their staff and volunteers have maintained their passion for supporting those dealing with cancer during an especially challenging time. We couldn’t be happier to help the Wheels of Hope, Lodges, and other Canadian Cancer Society programs, to continue their meaningful work safely. Our father sadly passed away from cancer in 2021. We know he would be as immensely proud of this relationship as we are.”
