West 1 Physiotherapy provides Ergonomic Workstation Assessment in London
Workstation assessments are a requirement of Health and Safety regulations in the UK.
Ensuring good workstation set-up and providing effective education can assist in the prevention and management of pain and injury in the workplace.
West 1 Physiotherapy and Pilates offers a specialised service for companies interested in the welfare of their employees. We will come on-site and perform an Ergonomic Assessment that will include:
- An in-depth interview of employee to analyse any current dysfunctions
- Ergonomic assessment of seating / desk / screen / mouse / phone / lighting / work environment / task management
- Work risk assessment
- Postural analysis
- Postural training
- Provide a comprehensive report outlining any suggested modifications / recommendations
Small changes in positioning of office equipment and posture can make a significant difference to the health of the muscles and joints. A simple On-site Ergonomic Assessment may be all that is needed to avoid loss of productivity through back and neck problems and/or repetitive strain injury (R.S.I.). A workstation assessment can help to reduce absenteeism from work by providing information and simple changes to the work environment to help an individual remain or return to the workplace.
Ergonomic Workstation Assessments can prevent:
- Repetitive Strain Injuries (R.S.I.)
- Incidence of employees missing work or unable to do work
- Back and neck pain
