Office Ergonomics & Manual Handling Assessments
Are your employees experiencing discomfort or taking sick days for such things as tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome, or back pain? Would you like to safeguard their well-being and enhance their productivity?
What are the benefits of workplace ergonomics?
Implementing ergonomic practices in the workplace can reduce pain-related absences due to musculoskeletal disorders (MSK) by up to 30%.
Our team of ergonomically trained Osteopaths are available to visit your workplace and assess the workstations and activities of each individual employee.
They will evaluate each desk setup and work environment, providing recommendations for necessary adjustments to promote:
- Improved employee productivity
- Better health and comfort
- Fewer pain-related absences
- Reduced risk of injury or repetitive strain (RSI)
- Reduced eye strain
- Employee welfare
Our approach to workplace ergonomics
Our Osteopaths use their deep understanding of biomechanics and the musculoskeletal system to identify and correct imbalances that can lead to pain and injury within the workplace. Their approach to ergonomics goes beyond simple workstation adjustments, it addresses the root causes of discomfort.
So whether it’s desk work, warehouse work, manual handling, or lifting tasks, they will conduct a risk assessment for each individual.
We also offer one-off return visits for new starters or annual reviews.
