What Is An Office Ergonomic Assessment?

Each day in your office you interact with various tools throughout your work day from using a desk, chair, computer, keyboard, lights, flooring and more. Each tool that you use in your workday effects your positioning, movement and alignment in your workspace. An ergonomic consultant will be able to assess and monitor these to best address concerns and recommend changes to improve your health and wellbeing.

Many people do not know how to set up their work area ergonomically to suit their bodies needs and eliminate hazards that can have long term effects, possible injuries and concerns that can impact you in your personal life as well. 

An office ergonomic assessment begins with an evaluation of your daily work habits in your workspace, what tools are used and what body movement you have when interacting with these tools. A consultant will take the time to analyze your concerns, work patterns and give recommendations and show you how to make changes to suit your personal needs in your workplace. The evaluation is key to getting to know each client's individual work habits in order to help set up, make changes or recommendations for your safety now and in the long term of your life. 

Our ergonomic consultant takes the time to address potential hazards in your workspace and will provide information on ergonomic risks that can lead to long-term injury and how those affects can be detrimental to your health and productivity in your position.   ​
