A Home Office Ergonomic Assessment Can Help You Get Comfortable And Prevent Injury
Working from home has become the new normal for many Australians. Unfortunately however, injuries caused by working from home are on the increase. Makeshift offices, poor posture and longer periods of sitting pose serious consequences such as pain in the lower back, neck and upper back, shoulders and wrists and tingling and pin and needles in the arms.
Under WHS legislation employers have a duty of care to provide a safe workplace for their workers.
“Employers are recommended to review ergonomics and equipment required to safely work from home” (iCare NSW).

Injuries resulting from long term exposure to poorly designed home offices and poor working posture are preventable and small changes to a workstation can prevent injury and enable workers to perform at their best.
