What is an Ergonomic Assessment?

Ergonomic assessments consider the relationship that an individual has with all of the equipment and furniture at this or her workstation, such as the chair position, desk height, computer screen, etc. Environmental factors such as lighting, glare, noise and temperature are also be considered when applicable. 

An ergonomic assessment ensures that your employees' workstation is set up in a way that suits his or her individual health needs, improving comfort and reducing the risk of an overuse injury developing. The added benefit for your organisation is improved productivity and fewer sick days.
