Workplace ergonomics and staff member health

There are three main workplace ergonomic risk factors that Era Health physiotherapists in Melbourne CBD can help you with. There are repetitive/sustained awkward postures, high task repetition and forceful exertions. Era Health physiotherapists may give even more work and advice if your staff members are taking full medicals within the clinic.

Workplace ergonomics and risk assessment

You should have a good idea of what is and isn’t going to be a risk to your staff members, but Era Health staff can give it a finer edge. You can know for sure what is going to harm staff and what is not. Some things may seem harmless, but are actually causing repetitive strain, and some things may appear to make your staff tired or have aching muscles, but are actually quite safe.

Workplace advice and consultation

Era Health physiotherapists have helped companies save millions in lost time, lawsuits and staff injury. Even suggestions such as staff rotation schedules have helped clients save money and prolonged spells of fatigue. Even rest and stretch breaks have been shown to increase productivity on a massive scale.
