ERGONOMIC ESSENTIALS: WORKSTATION SETUP/POSTURE AND STRETCHING
The Ergonomic Essentials: Workstation Setup/Posture and Stretching is a practical training course with a focus on correct posture and ergonomics to help prevent potential injury in the workplace. The correct posture and setup of the workstation is essential in all industries. Effective warm-up and stretching are useful pre-task to ensure the body is ready for work. Movement and stretching exercises throughout the day are important as many workers now have highly static and sedentary jobs. This training is delivered by an experienced Occupational Therapist.
