We also run short talks on mindfulness, nutrition and other health and well being topics.
Since the current pandemic and stay at home orders, our educational webinar on home working has proved popular with clients and their staff...
Ergonomics
Ergonomics is often associated with the prevention of musculoskeletal disorders such as RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury) and back pain, which can affect office workers. This is certainly a core area. However, ergonomics isn’t restricted to the office environment, nor is it restricted to tackling physical ailments. Ergonomics is about ensuring health and well-being certainly, but is also about optimising productivity and efficiency. This can be done on an individual scale – such as when conducting an assessment for a staff member reporting ill health or returning to work. It can also be done on a company-wide scale if broader issues are suspected to be contributing to poor health of workers or low productivity.
Ergonomics incorporates tasks analysis tools, subjective and objective assessment of injury, questionnaires, biomechanical assessment and measurement of equipment to determine fit with users. The scope is broad.
Training
We offer various training courses including DSE assessor training, teaching your staff to carry out DSE assessments for their colleagues. We also offer an online DSE user course which teaches staff how to set up their workstation correctly, including the principles of good health associated with prolonged computer use; the first step in immunisation against the sitting disease. This course also tests the individual to prove competence and then allows them to carry out a 'self-assessment' of their workstation.
In addition we offer manual handling training for staff carrying out lifting activities in their role, ensuring compliance with health and safety legislation.
