Office Ergonomic Assessments

Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and safety (CCOHS) define ergonomics “as the science of matching the job to the worker and the product to the user”

Office Ergonomic Assessments:

•Are conducted by an occupational therapist (OT) with training in office ergonomic assessments.

•The OT is advanced training in the assessment and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries.

•Purpose of the assessment is to adjust the workstation for an individual in order to minimize the element that is causing stain or injury.

•Through education the employee involved will be better able to prevent future injury or reduce exacerbation of an injury.
