Ergonomic Assessments at Workplaces

People who are employed and work a lot with a computer are covered by Health and Safety legislation to ensure that their workstations (ie desks) are set up to be safe and comfortable for them to work at. I am a qualified Display Screen Equipment (DSE) Assessor. I can come to people's workplaces - whether they work in an office or from home - to see whether their set up or equipment needs to be improved.

I am particularly able to see how the person is using themselves as well as their equipment. Whilst equipment like chairs can be designed to improve comfort, what is equally, if not more, important is how we are using ourselves - what our posture is like. The mistake that many people make is to try to hold themselves upright by stiffening and tightening. This is tiring, cannot be sustained for long and stops us breathing freely.

As an Alexander professional, I can give an insight into this. Please contact me to find our more details about Ergonomic Assessments on 07932 663 604.
