What is Ergonomic Evaluation?
An objective evaluation of the job design and methods, the work environment and the individual’s performance of job tasks in order to identify any areas of concern related to health ergonomics. EE also offers an analysis that will quantify and prioritise the areas of risk, centred on current evidence-based practise with recommendations to minimise the risk of injury/re-injury and to facilitate performance.
Who is it for?
Ideal for individuals who remain in employment and need specialist advice to ensure that their work tasks and working environment are at an optimal and will therefore not exacerbate their injury/condition. The EE will also identify suitable aids and adaptations that will facilitate the individual’s performance.

The intervention will also include a brief assessment of the injury/condition and current status in order to inform the EE. The provision of a concise report that will quantify and prioritise the risks, observations and concerns. In addition recommendations are made in order to minimise risk, and a list of recommended equipment and suppliers is provided with quotes where necessary.
