A Healthy Business Needs a Healthy Workforce
Ergonomics is the science of fitting the job to the person, rather than making the person adapt to the job.
“Health problems most often associated with work are musculoskeletal: in 2005, 25% of European workers complained of backache and 23% of muscular pains.” European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
By drawing on a wide variety of disciplines including anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, psychology, design and information technology, our service aims to make beneficial changes to work activities to best fit the person carrying out the task. This reduces work related musculoskeletal disorders, improves physical and mental health, maximises staff comfort and consequently optimises staff productivity and efficiency.
We work with both large and small businesses, and work closely with you to ensure our services meet your needs. This may include:
Workstations Assessments
Basic DSE Workstation Assessment
Essential for DSE workstation users
Specialist DSE Workstation Assessment
Ideal for those with work related problems
Combined Clinical Assessment and Specialist DSE Workstation Assessment
For the employee and employer who together wish for a greater clinical understanding of an individual’s symptoms
Rehabilitation
We aim to minimise periods of absence due to injury or accident by providing cost effective, early intervention for staff.
“The longer the period of absence the less likely the employee is ultimately to return to work.” Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development 2006.
