Arriba Group Cements Its Position as the Powerhouse of Digital Workforce Health
Arriba Group, one of Australia’s largest and most awarded workplace health, rehabilitation, disability, and employment services providers, is expanding its digital capabilities with OneRedDoor—a dedicated technology division using AI, data, and predictive analytics to create healthier, safer, and more productive workplaces.
Addressing Workforce Health Challenges with Technology
Workplace health is at a tipping point. Mental health claims have surged by 30% since 2020, with psychological injuries now costing four times more than physical injuries. 43% of Australians feel isolated at work, and the WHO has recognised workplace loneliness as a public health priority. OneRedDoor tackles these challenges by making workplace health more accessible, proactive, and cost-effective.
“OneRedDoor provides a unique opportunity for organisations to take a technology-driven approach to workforce wellbeing. By harnessing AI, predictive insights, and digital solutions, businesses can reduce claims, enhance productivity, and build a future-ready workforce.” — Marcella Romero, CEO and Founder, Arriba Group
OneRedDoor: A Digital-First Approach to Workplace Health
At the heart of OneRedDoor lies PeopleCompass, a flagship platform designed to help businesses identify and manage psychosocial risks before they escalate into costly claims or workforce disruptions.
With new psychosocial risk laws requiring early intervention, organisations need a structured and effective way to assess, monitor, and address workplace mental health risks. PeopleCompass simplifies compliance by delivering clear, actionable insights, empowering businesses to act early and safeguard employee wellbeing, productivity, and financial performance.
The stakes are high: psychological injury claims cost four times more than physical injuries, averaging $58,000 per claim and 27 weeks of lost productivity. PeopleCompass helps employers mitigate these risks through structured risk assessments, data-driven reporting, and proactive risk management, fostering healthier, more resilient workplaces.
Collaboration & Extending Efficiencies
Arriba Group is committed to collaborating with businesses, insurers, and clinical practices to extend the efficiencies it has developed internally. By sharing proven digital innovations and workforce health strategies, OneRedDoor helps businesses streamline operations, reduce costs, and improve workplace wellbeing.

"The future of workforce health depends on harnessing data-driven insights, and Arriba Group is at the forefront of this shift," says Michelle Barratt, Head of Innovation at Arriba Group. "OneRedDoor embodies our vision for a workplace where technology transforms health, risk management, and wellbeing. Businesses that embrace innovation today will shape healthier, more resilient workplaces for the future."
Dr Dinesh Palipana OAM, Arriba Group Ambassador and leading disability advocate, highlights the transformative potential of digital solutions in workforce inclusion.
"Technology has the power to break down barriers to workforce participation, ensuring more people—regardless of ability—have access to meaningful work. OneRedDoor is an exciting step towards creating workplaces that are not only healthier but also more inclusive. Digital solutions like PeopleCompass and MyDirection give businesses new ways to support employees and build stronger, more diverse teams."
