Ergonomic Assessment Services in Australia
Ergonomic assessment evaluates the physical demands of work tasks and the design of workstations to identify musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risk factors. Assessors use validated tools including RULA, REBA, NIOSH Lifting Equation, Snook & Ciriello tables, and the Strain Index to quantify biomechanical loading.
Assessments cover manual handling tasks, repetitive movements, sustained awkward postures, and forceful exertions. Office ergonomic evaluations address workstation setup, monitor positioning, seating, and input device configuration.
OHConnect ergonomic practitioners provide risk-ranked recommendations with practical control measures, from task redesign and mechanical aids to workstation adjustments and job rotation schedules.
