Think your office is exempt from workplace injuries? Think again.
By optimising workspaces for employees, businesses can safeguard against work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs), which have affected a whopping 87% of Australian adults, and have cost Australian businesses an estimated $24 billion annually.
According to a 2020 report on the cost of poor-quality (COPQ) work, poor ergonomics cost businesses 20% of their sales revenue and account for as much as 40% of total operations cost.
Improper setups and poor posture can lead to chronic pain, repetitive strain injuries, and long‑term health issues. (Learn more about workplace injuries in our article: 7 Most Common Workplace Injuries Across Australia)
Poor workplace ergonomics significantly impacts operational efficiency through decreased work speed and output, increased error rates and higher absenteeism rates.
Properly designed workstations reduce the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), while ergonomic assessments address potential health risks before they develop into serious problems.
Investing in workplace ergonomics minimises work-related injuries, which in turn lowers medical expenses, compensation claims, and insurance premiums.
An optimised workplace reduces physical strain and costs associated with employee turnover. This allows for longer periods of sustained productivity and increased operational efficiency. (For more information, see: Ergonomic Assessments: Your Key to Enhanced Workspaces)
An ergonomic assessment is an evaluation of a worker’s workstation designed to identify and reduce ergonomic hazards. The goal is to help workers maintain correct posture while ensuring a safe and comfortable working environment.
Workstation setup: Overall configuration and arrangement of equipment.
Desk design, height, and organisation: Suitability and layout of the workstation.
Posture: How the worker’s body is positioned during tasks.
Repetitive tasks: Movements that may contribute to overuse injuries.
Forceful exertion: Tasks requiring significant physical effort.
Lighting: Adequacy and positioning of light sources.
Room temperature and space: Ambient conditions that affect comfort and productivity.
In the last 10 years, 20,500 workers (14.5% of all claims) filed workers compensation claims for work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). Proactively addressing ergonomic risks helps prevent injuries, supports a faster return to work, and leads to long-term savings for employers.
Our team of experts deliver sustainable recommendations that contribute to effective training programs, improved business purchasing decisions and enhanced workplace safety culture.
Creating a safe, comfortable and positive work environment demonstrates the company’s commitment to employee wellbeing, and improves employee retention rates.
Our ergonomic assessment solutions can be tailored to workspaces of all sizes, including offices, warehouses, retail spaces, healthcare facilities, and remote work environments.
We ensure your business adheres to OSHA, Safe Work Australia, and industry-specific ergonomic regulations to minimise legal risks and reduce compensation claims.
Prioritising ergonomic compliance not only helps prevent injuries but also ensures that businesses meet legal obligations and reduce the risk of fines. By effectively addressing workplace ergonomics, you can minimise workers compensation claims, avoid regulatory issues, and boost overall productivity.
