Ergonomics Workshops for Office Professionals

SITTINGSAFE is a new generation of job-specific on-site training designed to reduce office-based injuries and illness experienced by many who work with computers or perform other job activities while in a seated position. Cumulative trauma disorders such as back injuries and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome are at epidemic proportions. Many workers have never been correctly taught on how to do their specific jobs correctly. This combination of theory and practical teaching methods is designed to teach employees how to use their bodies safely both at home and on-the-job.

The workshop gets the participants involved via a practical module that ensures the employee can adjust their own workstation ergonomically correct. This module is supported by a video and other materials. The workshop includes a three-minute stretching routine aimed at reducing stress from repetitive activities. The goal of the program is to teach the employee how to control their environment using their existing furniture and equipment to prevent painful and costly injuries.
