## ACC Tertiary Accreditation

Hirepool is part of the Accident Compensation Corporations Accredited Employers Program (AEP). Hirepool manages all work related injuries in house with the assistance of a third party provider, this allows us to provide support for injured employees right from the day of injury and to continue to support them through diagnostics and rehabilitation until they return to their pre injury role. To maintain membership to AEP Hirepool completes an annual external audit of its management system and injury management practices, Hirepool has maintained certification at Tertiary level for the last 10 years.
