What are ergonomic evaluations and how do they help you or your employees?

Ergonomic workstation evaluations help employers recognize problems with a layout or design or piece of equipment that may be contributing to an employee's musculoskeletal stress, postural strain, and repetitive stress injuries, whether they're working in the office, in a lab or manufacturing facility, or at home. In many cases, employees have a physical condition that places them in a high-risk category. Adaptive measures, changes in the employee's work methods, or simple adjustments to existing equipment can help to alleviate pain and discomfort.

FACT: Every year, more workers lose time from work because of repetitive strain disorders,

and back and neck injuries.

FACT: Employers are increasingly turning to ergonomics to reduce the cost of workers' compensation claims and lost productivity.

A workstation evaluation with Ergonomic Evolution can lead to solutions that improve the employee's health, productivity, comfort, and morale!

Our evaluations include a report that employers can use to document efforts made to resolve employee concerns. We customize a post-evaluation report that includes recommendations for each individual based on observations made, information collected, and discussions held.

Is it expensive?

Our rates are incredibly competitive. Our experience is unmatched. Some of our clients require a workstation evaluation when an employee is hired, as a proactive and preventive measure. There are studies upon studies that detail how beneficial a properly setup workstation is. And we believe it's one of the smartest ways to attract and retain employees.

As for the cost of furniture and equipment, we prefer to make adjustments to what's already in place as a cost and energy savings measure. We can provide ergonomic equipment as needed, or provide specs for equipment if you already have a vendor you work with. We will also suggest other resources if we cannot provide the best solution.

NEW! Remote Ergonomic Evaluations

As the work environment changes and more employees are working remotely, Ergonomic Evolution can provide thorough assessments of your desk, workstation, and equipment, remotely! You provide the required information and we will send back a written report, just like we do for in-person assessments.

The process is as follows:

Add the Comfort Survey to the Cart and download it after payment.
Complete the Comfort Survey- a simple questionnaire about your setup and habits- and submit it back to Ergonomic Evolution.
You also will need to provide a few photos of yourself working as you normally do. (We'll let you know exactly what photos we need.)
Once the Comfort Survey and photos are received, we will contact you to schedule a discussion via phone call or video chat, whichever you prefer.
This discussion will last 20-30 minutes, and our ergonomist will ask some follow-up questions based on the information you provided.
Finally, we'll send a customized, written report to you (or the relevant party- in most cases, this is the HR or Facilities Dept), with all the data gathered, your photos, notes from our discussion, and recommendations.

A remote ergonomic evaluation takes no more than an hour of your time and is a great way to ensure that you and your equipment are positioned in the healthiest way possible. It's not that different from an in-person assessment, and the result is the same: Reducing any aches and pains you are having!

Onsite Evaluations:

We offer 3 levels of Onsite evaluations. Choose the one that best fits your needs. Please contact us with any questions and a price quote.

Level One - Quick and Basic

An overview of a single workstation or site, with basic suggestions and modifications. This option would be good for an end-user with only minor issues or needs, such as a chair adjustment, keyboard tray modification, or re-arrangement of equipment for improved efficiency.

Level Two - Standard Evaluation

A one-hour in-depth analysis of a workstation or site that includes a written report with observations and suggestions. This service is our most popular and is ideal for documenting and tracking worksite improvements. It also allows employers to follow up with their employees to ensure recommendations are being followed, and in some cases, determine the need for a re-evaluation.

Level Three - Corporate Contract Evaluations

Includes all of the Level Two - Standard Evaluation services for companies looking to implement an ergonomic program. This option is best for mid to large-size companies looking to evaluate numerous employees or commit to a long-term agreement. Ergonomic Evolution would serve as an in-house ergonomic consultant and would likely team with your Human Resources or Facilities Department to develop standard processes and procedures. These programs are highly customized and we would work together to develop a program that meets your needs.
