Meet Our Team
Do you recognize yourself?
IHST combines clinical expertise, analysis of actual work conditions, and strategic consulting to support companies in risk prevention, job retention, and the sustainable improvement of working conditions. This multidisciplinary approach is grounded in scientific knowledge, real-world realities, and measurable results.
Training & Skills
Front-line managers
When faced with an employee who is struggling, your managers lack the guidance they need to recognize the warning signs, initiate a conversation, and provide support at the right time.
Absences & Job Retention
Prolonged Absences
An employee has been absent for weeks: there has been no regular follow-up, no return-to-work plan, and the position has not been adjusted.
Psychosocial Risks & Work Environment
Burnout
Workload, conflicts, loss of purpose: signs of burnout are becoming more common among your teams, yet there is no diagnosis or targeted action.
Ergonomics & Physical Strain
Musculoskeletal disorders
Pain, repetitive motions, awkward postures: complaints are piling up, sick leave is on the rise, and workstations remain unchanged.
On-Site Health & Emergencies
On-site health services are not sufficiently organized
No infirmary, an understaffed on-call service: day-to-day care is improvised, and incidents are still handled on an emergency basis.
Legal Framework & Obligations
Uncertain Legal Compliance
Trusted representative, maternity protection, risk assessment, MSST directive: You’re not sure whether you’re actually meeting your obligations.
Management & Metrics
Indicators Not Tracked
Absenteeism, employee turnover, accidents, medical restrictions: without a dashboard, you can’t measure either the extent of the challenges or the impact of your actions.
Strategy & Coordination
Scattered Responsibilities
HR, managers, safety, and occupational health: each operates independently, without a big-picture view or a shared direction.
IHST bridges human, operational, and regulatory challenges.
We clarify priorities, coordinate expertise, and support implementation, with results that are monitored over the long term.

Progress and Results
Are you in good standing?
In Switzerland, employers are required to protect the physical and mental health of their employees and to establish a structured prevention program (Labor Act [LTr] Art. 6, OLT 1, OLT 3, OProMa, OPA, Swiss Code of Obligations [CO] Art. 328, CFST Directive 6508).
Take stock: Where does your organization really stand?
Workplace Safety
Have you consulted with specialists and documented your occupational health and safety procedures?
Maternity Protection
Have the risks to pregnant or breastfeeding employees been assessed by a qualified professional before any pregnancy was announced?
Protection of Personal Rights
Do your employees have a clear procedure in place and a trusted contact person who can step in immediately?
First Aid
In the event of an accident or medical emergency, do you know who will respond, what equipment they’ll bring, and how quickly they’ll arrive?
Compliance isn't just a list of documents. It's something that's verified in the field.
