Purpose of the Service

An ergonomic assessment will ensure optimal working position to reduce the risk of exacerbation of symptoms by providing guidance on adjustments to work environment and tasks.

What is an Ergonomic Assessment?

It involves a comprehensive assessment of the workstation and environment to check and measure or photograph the individual's positions, work tasks, job design, seating and working
or driving environment, plus any manual handling involved. Each assessment
takes from 1-3 hours depending upon the complexity
of the situation.

The assessment may be at any type of workplace such as office, factory or farm. We also specialise in home based working environments and set ups.

Where possible the Assessor will make immediate adjustments to help
reduce symptoms or potential for discomfort. 

A written report is provided with recommendations for adjustments, identified risks, costed equipment features and any actions to minimise risk of exacerbation of symptoms or re-injury.  

Who is this suitable for?

This type of assessment is helpful for people with an injury or health condition that results in them being off work or struggling at work and who require a comprehensive assessment of their work environment and advice on adjustments and equipment to minimise risk of further injury or exacerbation of symptoms.

Kind words from our clients

Ergocom provided in depth consultation covering a phased return to work plan, equipment for both home and workplace that would help with recovery and advice surrounding how colleagues could help in the workplace. The phased return to work plan was successful in that the return to work has now been sustained over a number of years.
Andrew Fitzsimmons

Ergocom provided me with a friendly, approachable and very professional consultant who encouraged me where I felt I was regularly failing. Sue is just fantastic. I was speaking to someone who actually understood and who helped and supported me in a caring and constructive manner, which is what I so desperately needed. I have struggled badly, but this is the first decently sustained return to work after I had four failed attempts over a 16 month period.

It has been good to look back from when I was recovering from the operation, to getting back to work and to where I am now.  Christa’s support meant that I did not have to stress about work, and that I was not going to be forced into work before I was ready.  The ‘hand-holding’ when I did start work was important - I needed someone one to say, “no, not yet’ and “OK, now you are ready to give it a go".

It’s been really good having you working on the account and I have really valued your input (and wisdom ) on the wide variety of cases we have.

Support from Ergocom has been a great asset in my rehabilitation and return to work. Being able to speak to a third party with an understanding of the difficulties of returning from a major illness and surgery has been an invaluable source of comfort and support through the “ups and downs”.

I wanted to say a huge thank you for all of your help and support, I couldn’t have made it back to where I am now without your help. My doctor also said that he has been very impressed with how my employer has handled my return, and I believe that a lot of that credit must go to you. I was dreading returning to work, but you have made it so much easier than I thought it would be.

The help and advice I have received has been invaluable. The guidance and support provided to me has given me the tools I needed to work with my employer to ensure an amicable agreement during my return to work.
