Participants learn the value of ergonomics for office workers, by rating their comfort, productivity, work quality, and job satisfaction after a 60 second office task, under “poor” and “good” ergonomic conditions.
We cover these points, all with “hands-on” applications:
1. Check the chair
2. Fit your sit-stand station
3. Feet first! Choose the right footwear
4. Optimize head and neck, and vision
5. Choose and use input devices
6. Get it just so (fine-tuning your adjustments)
7. Build strength to stand
8. Stretch to avoid discomfort
9. Motivate – remind yourself of the benefits of standing
10. Just move it – find additional opportunities to move while working
