Ergonomic Assessment Brisbane
An ergonomic assessment is typically performed in city offices where workers are spending a majority of their time completing tasks whilst sitting down at a desk behind a computer. This is because a common negative side effect of modern workplace activities is aches and pains, Particularly in the Wrists, Neck and Lower Back. Manager’s are increasingly realising the benefits of smarter ergonomics, which studies have shown will increase productivity and reduce costs over time. One of Brisbane CBD’s leading consultants for workplace ergonomic assessment is qualified and energetic chiropractor Dr Miki Humphrey.
What Is An Ergonomic Assessment?
An ergonomic assessment is an analysis of how employees work. It involves identifying ergonomic risks such as repetitive tasks that can cause strain, improper work area setup, and improper use of tools, which can result in the development of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). Seeking professional advice is a valuable investment that will ensure the health and safety of workers is protected. It also demonstrates to employees that the company values their contribution and seeks to provide the best work environment possible.
Benefits Of An Ergonomic Assessment
1. More productive and sustainable employees
By creating a more comfortable work environment, employees will be able to minimise the aches that come from working and enhance productivity. It will also result in happier employees and promote a healthy work environment that will increase job satisfaction.
2. Improves Work Quality
When employees are working too strenuously, and experiencing the effects of poor ergonomics, they won’t be able to perform tasks as well as they were trained or to the best of their ability. You can improve the quality of work that employees deliver by introducing updates to their work areas by simply adjusting the height and positioning of their desk and chair to recommended guidelines.
3. Creates A Safety Culture
Conducting an ergonomics assessment shows your company’s commitment to safety and health as a strong value. A healthy workforce is your most valuable asset and creating a safety culture at your company will lead to better human performance. It will also reduce the chance of accidents taking place and lessen the risk of work-related injury claims, meaning fewer costs and more productivity.
