Corporate Health & Ergonomics

Your business should run like a well-oiled machine. However, there are hidden dangers in any office. Poor posture and repetitive movements can lead to back problems, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other strains and sprains among your workforce.

As a result, you lose time and money from increased employee absenteeism and decreased productivity. Furthermore, it will be harder to retain these employees.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is Ergonomics?

Ergonomics is the field of science that studies and designs the human-machine (tool), human-work environment, and human-human interfaces to prevent injury, illness, and improve work performance.

What is the purpose of Ergonomics in the workplace?

Good ergonomics practices and the application of sound ergonomics principles in the design of office, workplace, jobs and tasks have a positive impact on workers, work tasks and the work environment. The economic impact of ergonomics can also be illustrated through a reduction in injury or illness rates, a reduction in costs associated with injury and illness, and improvement in workplace productivity. Whether you work in an office, drive a taxi or wait tables, Ergonomics can play a big part in your health.

What happens when I do not practice proper Ergonomics?

Physical stress placed on your body can lead to cumulative trauma disorders and repetitive stress injuries, which create a life-long impact on your health. Common symptoms include pain, muscle fatigue, loss of sensation, tingling, and reduced motivation and performance. Let us help you to reduce strain, fatigue and injuries with sound ergonomic principles.
