Are you staff complaining of headaches or sore necks? Are you sure they have positioned all the pieces of equipment they use correctly? Did you know that a large proportion of office workers do not know how to set up their computer and chair correctly? Anyone working at a workstation that is not ergonomically sound will, over a period of time, suffer from neck, shoulder and back pain, headaches and eye strain. Often they will not complain until the condition becomes chronic and by this stage it could take multiple physiotherapy sessions before the pain is relieved. At Safety IQ we place a great deal of importance on ergonomically sound workstations. Whether the workplace is an office, factory, production line, mobile plant or laboratory, we can assess the workstation and recommend some solutions (many often require only minor adjustments) that will make your employees more comfortable and enable them to do their work more effectively. We can even provide some stretches for staff to perform throughout the day that are designed to relax the muscles that have been working hard. Expert egonomic advice during the design and planning stages could save you money! If you are in the process of setting up a new production line or office, or are about to purchase a new piece of machinery or office equipment talk to our consultants first. We can help you to avoid costly mistakes by recommending correct heights, positioning, postures, processes and solutions to avoid repetitive tasks while you are in still in the critical design and planning stages. Don’t leave ergonomics to chance let us make sure all the pieces fit together correctly.
