Individual Ergonomic Worksite Evaluations

These assessments are available for employees who are currently reporting aches or pains or have concerns associated with their work space.  As these employees may be reporting discomfort, more time is spent discussing the history of an injury and early intervention stretches may be given in addition to the ergonomic evaluation.  Meeting with an employee’s supervisor, as well as obtaining a brief history may also be included.  The employer will receive a report of employee subjective complaints, as well as ergonomic changes completed, and any additional changes that may need further attention within 5-7 business days.

Group Preventative Ergonomic Evaluations

Businesses of any size have the opportunity to schedule a block of time for LEC to be on-site to complete multiple screenings.  Typically, three to five evaluations can be completed within an hour depending on the complexity of each evaluation. These evaluations include symptom survey reviews with each individual as well as real time ergonomic modifications. The employer will receive a report of individual employee subjective complaints, as well as ergonomic changes completed, and any additional changes that may need further attention within 5-7 business days.

Group Ergonomic Seminars

Designed to reduce the risk of cumulative trauma disorders (CTD) and other musculoskeletal injuries in an office or group setting. The seminars aim at teaching safe work behavior and body mechanics through actual practice of the techniques being communicated. Appropriate stretching and strengthening exercises which can be performed on the job (or during the task) will also be reviewed.  Employees/ Individuals will be motivated to accept responsibility for the setup of their workstations/areas and the care of their bodies. Time will be spent reviewing the importance of not viewing specific equipment as a cure-all for aches and pains. These seminars are a positive, energetic, collaborative, educational experience for all who participate. 

Personal In Home Assessments

Specifically designed to provide insight and education in one’s home setting. LEC is able to provide individuals with specific recommendations related to improving their capability to perform pain free activities of daily living. This might include modifications in the kitchen, work shop, home office or outdoor lawn and garden care.

Virtual Assessments

With today’s technology assessments can be performed via virtual consultation as well. We utilize Zoom, Facetime, and Google & Microsoft Teams platforms currently. During the 30-45 minute assessment the individual’s current workstation layout and job tasks are reviewed and the information provided and offering suggestions for improvement during the assessment. Additionally, time is spent reviewing pertinent education related to ergonomic principles geared towards improving productivity, efficiency and reducing discomfort.
