What you get with your Ergonomic Assessment
We strive to ensure that each ergonomic assessment is tailored to our client’s needs. Typically an assessment consists of a 1.5 hour appointment per workstation and includes a detailed report which is delivered after the session. For sessions of 6+ workstations we offer an hourly rate with or without reporting.
Train your internal Ergonomics trainer
Another option for larger offices is assigning and training an internal ergonomic expert such as office administrative staff. Symmetrix organizes half day on-site training with your own internal expert to teach them everything they need to know. With the knowledge your internal expert gains they will be able to deliver quality ergonomic adjustments for your staff.
