Office Ergonomics Assessments

In-person and Virtual Assessments for Work Office and Home Office environments

We have extensive experience in conducting ergonomics analysis for:

  • Employees who are experiencing symptoms or have been diagnosed with a medical condition or have had surgery that could impact their work;
  • Employees whose health care providers have recommended an ergonomics assessment;
  • Employees who have been involved in MVAs (motor vehicle accidents) and, consequently, insurance companies have recommended an ergonomics assessment;
  • Employees with physical attributes that are outside the range of the 5th percentile female to 95th percentile male; and
  • Employees who continue to experience symptoms following a preliminary ergonomics review conducted by in-house “Ergo Reps”.

Note: Some health care insurance plans cover the cost of an ergonomics assessment. Consult your health care insurance provider.
