Workstation Ergonomic Assessments

Setting up a computer workstation correctly plays a critical role in improving worker comfort, morale, and productivity. Poor workstation design can contribute to fatigue, discomfort, and musculoskeletal issues, which in turn may impact performance and wellbeing.

 

This service focuses on practical workstation ergonomics, helping employees understand how their physical setup influences their health and day-to-day efficiency at work.

 

Aims

The aim of this service is to improve the morale and wellbeing of office workers while also helping organisations reduce the risk of workplace injuries and associated workers’ compensation insurance costs. This is achieved through individual assessments of each employee’s workstation, identifying potential ergonomic risks, and providing clear, practical recommendations tailored to the individual and their specific work tasks.

Intended Outcomes

Participants are provided with personalised knowledge and techniques to adjust their workstations ergonomically, empowering them to maintain safe and comfortable working postures on an ongoing basis. Each assessment includes one-on-one guidance and a written report outlining findings and recommendations. Delivered on-site, the service allows the assessor to work directly with employees in their actual work environment, ensuring advice is relevant, practical, and immediately applicable.

Delivery Location

This service is only available for delivery at your site, as the assessor will be looking at each individual's workstation with them.
