Ergonomic Assessments and Consultations
Ergonomics is the application of a scientific approach that helps the Occupational Therapist to best determine the way in which people interact with their working environments. Ergonomic assessments are administered by the Occupational Therapist and aim to help clients achieve optimal positioning while engaging in work tasks.Ergonomic assessments have been used by our clients and fee payers for the following:
- To facilitate a safe and durable return to work following injury or prolonged absence.
- To educate employees and employers on safe and sustainable working practices in a wide variety of settings from heavy industrial to sedentary office work.
- To support clients who require adaptations to their workstations due to limitations they may have acquired as a result of injury or illness.
- To provide Proactive Ergonomic Education Seminars and Workshops to small and large corporations in order to proactively address work related injury claims.
