Praventus Health — Helping Perth mining operations protect their workforce before the first shift starts.
Turning hiring decisions into risk management with clinical precision
Wayne, the Overwhelmed Mine Site Manager
42-48 years old, Operations Manager or Site Manager at mining company, $120-150k income, managing 50-200+ employees, 15+ years mining industry experience
Managing a FIFO mining operation where workers comp claims are spiralling out of control. New hires keep getting injured within their first few months, insurance premiums are climbing, and head office is asking hard questions about site safety performance and hiring practices.
Has tried basic medical clearances through local GPs but they miss underlying issues. Attempted in-house fitness assessments but lacks clinical expertise. Previous screening providers were too generic, slow turnaround times delayed project starts, and injuries still happened anyway – costing $80k+ per major claim.
Feels personally responsible every time someone gets hurt. Frustrated that he's being held accountable for injuries that seem preventable. Quietly worried his job is on the line if claims don't improve. Suspicious of medical providers who promise the world but don't understand mining realities.

Just had another new employee injure their back in week 3 – a pre-existing condition that should have been caught. Insurance company is now threatening a premium review and head office has scheduled a 'please explain' meeting for next week about site safety performance.

This week I am looking to be introduced to the Operations Manager at any of these businesses — pick the one you know someone who might know:
Failing that, I’d love to be introduced to the Site Safety Manager at any construction company with major Perth infrastructure projects.
At worst, I’m looking for any HR Manager of any manufacturing facility based in Kwinana, Perth.

Stop speaking. Make direct eye contact with one person. Deliver a single thought directly to them. Pause. Then move to the next person. Never spray the whole room at once.
