From its humble beginning, as a medical chest in the office of the Assistant General Manager of the Works in 1894, the Works Hospital has developed into a modern facility capable of handling nearly any type of industrial accident case. In addition to physical examination of new and re-engaged employees, the most frequent services rendered to workers are attention to injuries and ailments.
