Why Work From Home Ergonomics Matters
It’s easy to put your feet up on your couch and knock out some work without realizing the damage you’re causing to your neck, back, shoulders, and wrists until it’s too late. Remote work has led to an explosion in repetitive strain injuries and diso=comfort reporting because of the lack of proper ergonomic office equipment at home. You don’t always need a fancy sit-stand desk to make a big difference though. Our work from home ergonomics assessment works with what you have to ensure you work comfortably. Postured will offer product suggestions that will further enhance your home office, allowing you to focus, be more productive, and feel great doing it!
Signs Your Home Office May Need an Ergonomic Upgrade
Back pain, neck strain, wrist and hand numbness, and headaches are just a few of the common symptoms of poor work from home ergonomics. You might get away with sitting with poor posture for a couple hours or even days, but these injuries will sneak up on you and are a tell-tale sign your home office needs an ergonomic update. Something as simple as having your monitor adjusted correctly can solve headaches and eye strain completely. Investing in home office ergonomics will boost your focus and energy throughout the day while ridding you of these nagging pains.
Virtual vs. On-Site Home Office Ergonomics Assessments
Virtual work from home ergonomics assessments provide fast, flexible, cost-effective professional evaluations of your current work from home setup. You can book an assessment online today. On-site ergonomic assessments are hands-on and provide in-person demonstrations or equipment setup in the greater San Diego area. Both options will always give the same expert level recommendations and thoroughness.
Common Home Office Ergonomic Issues We Solve
Over the past 20 years, some of the most common issues we see in home offices are screens being too low or high leading to “tech neck” - neck strain that can permanently change your posture for the worse. Desks that are poorly positioned often cause wrist and hand numbness and shoulder pain. Poor lighting and distance from screens cause headaches and eye strain. Chairs with poor support and slouching cause back pain that can become detrimental to your life outside of work. Postured’s Work from home ergonomics program identifies and solves these different issues.
