Why Ergonomic Assessments Matter
Many of us experience daily work routines that are far from ergonomic. You may recognise some of these common issues: neck pain from craning over your desk, lower back pain from a poorly aligned chair, wrist discomfort from awkward keyboard positioning, and eye strain caused by staring at screens for hours. The good news is that these issues can all be addressed through ergonomic assessments.
Why You Should Not Overlook Ergonomic Issues
Here’s how they can escalate if left unattended:
The consequences of prolonged poor ergonomics extend far beyond mere discomfort. Ignoring these issues can have serious repercussions on your health and quality of life.
Poor ergonomics go beyond discomfort. They can harm your health and life.
Here’s how:
Chronic Conditions: Untreated issues lead to chronic pain, repetitive injuries, and even sciatica.
