Is your workplace productive enough?

Let the ergonomic experts from Ergobility help you out.

Ergonomics is the key to an efficient and productive work environment. Utilizing ergonomics will boost your employees’ physical efficiency and decrease the chances of injury. Ergobility’s ergonomics evaluation is an effective procedure to assess your workplace’s productivity.

Ergonomic Evaluation Process

Your workplace’s ergonomic improvements will be of no use if you don’t critically analyze your organization for risk factors pertaining to musculoskeletal disorder (MSD). The ergonomic evaluation gives you a clear view of risk factors within your company. A proper evaluation will help you prioritize, implement and communicate workplace improvements effectively. Listed below are the five steps in which our Ergobility experts will efficiently and effectively evaluate your workspace:

  1. Establishing a General Ergonomic Evaluation Method

Our Ergobility experts will start by developing an ergonomic assessment plan according to the needs of your organization. They will do that by standardizing the assessment throughout the workplace and ensuring that it’s conducted with regards to the MSD risk factors.

  1. Involving the Employees

Employees are an integral part of the ergonomics evaluation. Everything from the workplace’s environment to productivity to the MSD risk factors revolves around them. Therefore, it’s essential to keep them in the loop throughout the process. For this, our experts at Ergobility will talk to the employees and ask them questions such as:

  • Are the tools they use helpful?
  • Is the height of their workstation comfortable?
  • Do they experience fatigue or discomfort on the job?

In simpler words, employees’ responses will be the basis for all ergonomic workplace improvements.

  1. Conducting the Assessment Objectively

Once our Ergobility experts have collected the subjective data for the ergonomic plan by interviewing and observing employees as they work, they will carry out an objective ergonomic assessment. Our experts will use tools to conduct a workplace ergonomics evaluation in the following areas:

  • Upper Body Posture
  • Lifting/Lowering Tasks
  • Entire Body Posture
  • Pulling/Pushing
  • Hand-Arm Vibration
  • Screening Tools
  • Hand-Arm Vibrations

By using standardized procedures to conduct the evaluation, our experts will monetize all the results with reference to the employees’ work nature and tasks.

  1. Evaluation of the Collected Data

Now that our Ergobility experts have collected both the objective and subjective data, they will sit down and evaluate everything they have learned throughout the assessment. Our experts will first assess the realistic factors:

  • What is the risk level of the job?
  • Does the job pose any kind of threat in terms of injury?
  • How can the risk factor be eliminated?

Once the experts have all the answers to the aforementioned questions, they will conduct a “What If” analysis. The evaluation is aimed to generate new, improved ideas in light of all possibilities to make your workplace peaceful and productive.

  1. Planning an Ergonomic Workplace

Our experts will bring the objective data, subjective data and overall assessment back to the office, where they will brainstorm improvement opportunities and solutions according to the nature of your organization.

The main reason behind this consultation is to bring expertise and a fresh perspective to the table. Our Ergobility team of experts will use all the information to create an effective, customized ergonomics plan for your workplace.
