Ergonomics training

Short enough that people actually attend.

It can be paired with individual or organisational workstation assessments, so the session and the setup are addressed together rather than in isolation.

Outcomes

What people leave with

Training works when people leave with the knowledge and confidence to improve their own setup. That is what this session is built around, with the rest of the benefits follow from it.

  • Workers who self correct. Employees learn to identify ergonomic hazards and adjust their own workstation.
  • Fewer injuries. Safe movement strategies reduce musculoskeletal discomfort.
  • Engagement and satisfaction. Investment in comfort supports morale as well as productivity.
  • WHS compliance. Demonstrates that the organisation is meeting its obligations.
  • Lower injury costs. Reduces injury related expense and supports a healthier workplace.
The median time lost for a serious workers compensation claim is over 7 weeks. Musculoskeletal disorders account for 50% of serious claims.
