What Dansk Selskab for Fysioterapi i Arbejdsliv does

Dansk Selskab for Fysioterapi i Arbejdsliv is a Danish non-profit professional society operating under the umbrella organization Dansk Selskab for Fysioterapi. The society serves physiotherapists specializing in occupational health and workplace rehabilitation, focusing on prevention of work absence and labor market-oriented rehabilitation at individual, organizational, and societal levels. It operates from Copenhagen with a staff of 8, primarily elected board members serving two-year terms, and shares the ergonomi.dk platform with its cross-disciplinary partner Ergoterapi Fagligt Selskab Arbejdsliv.

The society's core offerings include annual membership services (priced at 350 DKK per year, free for students), the biennial Arbejdslivsseminar (a two-day professional seminar with 2026 edition scheduled for September 8-9 at Huset Middelfart), a two-level specialist certification program (Level 1 Certified Clinician and Level 2 Specialist), newsletters, and online course/event registration. Revenue is generated through recurring membership dues administered via the parent organization Danske Fysioterapeuter, and one-time event fees differentiated between members (4,900 DKK) and non-members (5,500 DKK). Distribution relies on the parent organization's membership portal, direct seminar registration through ergonomi.dk, and digital channels including LinkedIn and email.

The society is embedded in a broader professional ecosystem through partnerships with World Physiotherapy (international network of 129 member organizations representing 600,000+ physiotherapists), AM-PRO (Danish national umbrella for occupational health professional associations), NIVA Nordic Institute for Advanced Training (Nordic patient transfer network established October 2022), and Roskilde University (Nordic Working Life Conference). Its go-to-market motion is community-led and event-driven, with no proprietary technology platform beyond a content website and basic online registration system.
