Ergonomics Training Melbourne

Office ergonomics training sessions designed to teach you how to perform ergonomic assessments and assess ergonomic risks

Our ergonomics training sessions are suitable for those staff in your organisation who you are looking to up-skill, to provide them with the knowledge and skills to recognise ergonomic risks in the workplace, as well as perform proactive ergonomic assessments on your employees. This is typically key members of your HR or WHS teams.

​If you are looking for an ergonomic workshop for all of your staff, which will teach your staff how to optimise the ergonomics of their own workstation and prevent workplace injuries, please view our Ergonomic Workshops here.
What is covered in our office ergonomics training sessions?

The information covered in our ergonomics training sessions includes:

  • Injury prevention principles for desk-bound workers - how injuries develop in desk-bound workers, so that you can recognise when symptoms are developing and prevent little niggles developing into fully-fledged injuries.
  • How to set up a seated workstation ergonomically, including a step-by-step guide.
  • How to set up a standing workstation ergonomically, including a step-by-step guide.
  • How to get the most benefit out of a sit-stand desk (only covered if you have sit-stand desks). 
  • Discussion of useful stretches and exercises to help prevent common injuries seen in office workers.
  • Education regarding ergonomic furniture.
  • OHS obligations with respect to workplace ergonomics.
  • An opportunity for your staff to ask us any questions they have about injury prevention or office ergonomics.

You will also receive a package of information (including ergonomic checklists and exercise sheet) that can be distributed to your employees for future reference.


Time Required?

We recommend allocating two hours for your office ergonomics training session. However, please let us know what your time constraints are and we will be able to design an ergonomics training session to suit your needs.

​Meet Your Trainer

All of our Melbourne Ergonomics Training sessions are delivered by the director and lead consultant of The Ergonomic Physio, Jordan Lees.

Jordan has a background as a musculoskeletal physiotherapist and workplace ergonomics expert. He left the clinic setting in 2013 to specialise in workplace injury prevention and occupational health. Since that time, Jordan has performed over 6000 ergonomic assessments for his clients.

Jordan's ethos is that preventing injuries, as opposed to reacting to them, is better for both employees and employers.

Recently we have had Jordan from The Ergonomic Physio come out and do both ergonomic assessments for our admin team and manual handling training for all of our educators. Not only is Jordan professional, knowledgeable and thorough, he also came up with innovative ideas and solutions when working with our team, who have different manual handling needs, as they work with children and not in an office. Jordan then supported us with sourcing the best equipment to meet our needs. On top of all of this Jordan is also extremely friendly and personable. I couldn’t recommend him and The Ergonomic Physio highly enough
