Ergonomic assessments and workshops via live video!
Virtual assessments help prevent staff injuries at home!
Ensure home office workstations are safe, comfortable and optimised for productivity.
Two things you can do to keep your staff injury free and productive:
- Remote Home-office ergonomic assessments:
Get our ergonomic experts to remotely assess the home office set-up of each employee. - Ergonomics Training Workshops:
Provide your staff with the ergonomic information they need in order to keep themselves healthy and functioning at peak efficiency. Your staff can attend our live, interactive video workshops from their home or your office.
Virtual online assessments are the cost-effective solution when an onsite ergonomic assessment is not possible. We have a streamlined virtual ergonomic assessment process, which your staff can access via Zoom or MS Teams, and their phones or computers. Let us know your preferred schedule, and we’ll prepare everything for you. That simple!
Virtual Ergonomic Assessments
We offer two levels of virtual workstation assessment: Standard and Detailed.
Standard Workstation or Home Office Assessments:
The standard assessment is recommended for employees in your office who do not have any pre-existing physical conditions. Staff with existing issues or staff who are setting up a home office for the first time are encouraged to have a Detailed Assessment.
Assessment Includes:
- Approximately 20 minutes for each staff member, noting a range of potential issues, which may include chair, desk, monitor, keyboard, mouse, phone, documents, and environmental, emailed to you in PDF format.
- A Summary report from all assessments and list of recommendations emailed to you in PDF format.
- Ergonomic Tip Sheet with workstation guidelines, healthy habits and suggested stretches.
Detailed Workstation or Home Office Assessments:
This detailed workstation assessment includes up to 30 minutes consultation with the assessor, plus an additional 30 minutes report-writing time. A detailed ergonomic assessment is recommended for those who have an existing condition, prior injury, displaying work-related symptoms, or are setting up a home office.
Assessment Includes:
- Prior to the assessment, you will receive a self-assessment checklist to complete and return to us along with some photos showing your current workstation set up.
- Extensively detailed report noting a range of potential issues, which may include chair, desk, monitor, keyboard, mouse, phone, documents, and environmental, emailed to you in PDF format.

Virtual Ergonomic Workshops & Training
Postural Alignment Workshops
Our ergonomics expert will deliver a presentation by live video to your team or department, tailored to your industry, demographics and specific requests. We can cover any chosen topics. Our most popular are:
- Posture and safe sitting
- How to recognise the need for adjustment – troubleshooting potential problems
- Instruction in suitable stretches in both sitting and standing to reduce muscle fatigue and strain
- Comfortable computing
- Workplace stress and physical health
- Simple exercises to relieve strain and improve postural comfort – these enable one to understand the connection between posture, our bodies, our skeletal and muscular systems, and how this affects our mood and energy levels.
Ergonomics
I requested an assessment of home office setup. The physio Wade called on time and gave me useful tips on how to prevent neck and wrist injuries when working at home. Very happy with the service.

Our ergonomics experts will train your employee(s), via live video conference, to a sufficiently high standard to enable them to carry out basic ergonomics assessments in your workplace.
