Corporate Wellness initiatives including health talks and workshops are ideal at creating simple changes in our daily habits, that create massive benefits. It's easy to create health and happiness daily, even in our busy, and often stressful lives. The workshops are broken down into sections delivering hands-on practical activity, group work and worksheets which allow us to regain control of our life, health, energy levels and mood.

Ergonomics Assessment
The goal of a well-designed office and workstations for employees is to improve health (reduced illness and injury), happiness (job satisfaction) and productivity. However, even with fancy chairs or height adjustable sit-stand desks, humans are a creature of habit. We sit on expensive multi-adjustable seats the same way we would if we sat on a sofa or a stool.
This is why posture and ergonomic assessments and workshops are essential. We can gather information that pinpoints habits that cause strain on the human system, causing problems like headaches, neck and shoulder aches, back pain or numbness in the arms and hands.
An ergonomic workstation assessment involves a detailed assessment of an individual’s work environment including their computer, keyboard and mouse, desk and chair. The outcome: Find and Solve risk factors that may lead to future health problems, or be causing current health problems - a common cause of reduced productivity, employee dissatisfaction and time off work.
