Reshaping Risk: An Insurer’s Path to Injury Prevention | Modjoul
26/08/2025Modjoul, the wearable technology partner in this collaboration, delivered the real-time motion data and haptic feedback that powered the IntelliCoach program. Their smart belt technology detected and alerted workers to risky movements, especially in the lower back region, a common injury hotspot at Mitolo Farms. In this interview, Modjoul’s Josh Turner details how their ergonomic and environmental sensor tools made complex data simple, actionable, and personal for employees. With dashboards, mobile apps, and intuitive feedback mechanisms, Modjoul transformed raw risk into real behaviour change. This video highlights the role of smart wearables in revolutionizing workplace injury prevention at scale.

This video series explores a ground-breaking workplace safety initiative born from a powerful cross-industry collaboration. Uniting an insurer, a rehabilitation provider, a risk advisory firm, a wearable tech company, and a forward-thinking employer.
At the heart of the story is Mitolo Farms, an Australian agricultural business grappling with high rates of musculoskeletal injuries (MSDs) among its workforce. Seeing both human and financial costs mounting, EML (Employers Mutual Limited) stepped in through their Mutual Benefits Program, issuing a call to action for scalable, preventative solutions.
Prudence Rehab responded with their IntelliCoach program, a behavioural coaching model enhanced by real-time wearable data. They partnered with Workplace Risk Technologies, who translated Mitolo’s risk profile into a strategic intervention and introduced the ideal tech partner, Modjoul.
Together, this coalition delivered an industry-first: a wearable safety pilot that achieved a 60% reduction in risky movements, zero lost-time injuries, and over $1.5 million in injury-related cost savings. Most importantly, it empowered workers to move better, feel better, and go home safer with the pilot now expanding across Mitolo’s 800+ staff as a mandatory PPE program.
In this series, each partner shares their unique role, challenges, and the measurable impact of their collaboration. Demonstrating what’s possible when data, technology, and human care align to solve one of the workplace’s most persistent risks.
