What Konekt does

Konekt Australia Pty Ltd is a privately held Australian workplace health and safety (WHS) services provider founded in 1992 and headquartered in West Perth, with sister offices across 40+ locations nationally. The company is a subsidiary of APM Human Services International Pty Ltd (APM Group), a global health and human services group touching more than 2 million people annually. Konekt delivers allied health professional services across seven core service lines: pre-employment assessment, injury prevention, injury management, psychological support, social and disability services, WHS services, and training. Its technology stack centers on the JobScreen platform — an online portal for 24/7 candidate referrals, real-time progress monitoring, and report retrieval — supplemented by JobScreen Rapid, a risk-rated online pre-employment medical questionnaire. Underlying service delivery is human-led, combining a national network of 280+ allied health professionals operating in-person and via telehealth, with no disclosed AI/ML capabilities.

The business model is professional services B2B with no public pricing; contracts are quote-based and negotiated through direct enterprise field sales, insurance broker channel partnerships, and direct government procurement. Customer segments span corporate employers (of all sizes), workers' compensation, life and CTP insurers, insurance brokers, the NDIS, the Department of Veterans' Affairs, and individual injured workers. Accreditation under the Nationally Consistent Framework in every Australian state and territory, combined with Konekt's stated position as one of Australia's largest providers of injury prevention and management services, anchors its competitive position. In 2024 Konekt served 33,395 individuals nationally, delivered 11,000+ government-contract services, and supported 300+ veterans concurrently, while winning multiple Australian Rehabilitation Providers Association (ARPA) awards including the ARPA National 2024 Winner.
