Thero Services emerged as a pivotal force in ensuring Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) compliance across nine hospitals within Gauteng Province, acting upon the directives of the Gauteng Department of Infrastructure Development (GDID). These hospitals, including Tara Hospital the renowned public sector psychiatric hospital, were subject to a meticulous evaluation process. Thero Services, armed with an adept comprehension of South African OHS legislation, international standards, and Infrastructure Unit Support Systems (IUSS) criteria, meticulously scrutinized each hospital's infrastructure. From scrutinizing general wards to optimizing storage facilities and sanitation protocols, Thero Services left no stone unturned in fortifying operational aspects to align with regulatory mandates, thereby safeguarding the welfare of both staff and patients.

Collaborating intimately with the Gauteng Department of Infrastructure Development (GDID), Thero Services devised tailored remedies to rectify identified infrastructural deficiencies. This proactive stance not only ensured conformity with local and international building standards but also bolstered the resilience and efficacy of hospital facilities, ultimately enhancing their capacity to deliver top-tier healthcare services to the populace.
