Remote Desk and In-Office Workstation Assessments
How we work is changing. Instead of working in the office all week, we’re working from home more or splitting our time between the home and the office.
Despite this seismic change, an employer's duty of care towards their employees is still the same.
At Nordic Balance, we understand that assessing each team member’s home office setup can be an overwhelming thought. To support local businesses we have put together Remote Desk and In-Office Workstation Assessments..
Remote Desk Assessments
An inadequate homeworking setup could be putting your employees at risk of developing issues from minor strains to more serious repetitive strain injuries and musculoskeletal disorders.
For all the benefits of homeworking, it’s important to remember that as an employer, you have the same health and safety responsibilities for home workers as when they are in the office, as set out by the UK Government HSE guidelines.
Recognising this need and bringing in years of experience, we’ve retrained our Chiropractors and Osteopaths to ensure that they are also Display Screen Equipment (DSE) certified, enabling them to provide remote risk assessments of your team’s home office desk set up.
Initial assessments of your employees personal working space, ergonomics and anthropometrics are conducted remotely via video call and will typically take up to 30 minutes.
The initial assessment results will be written up as a report and provided to show compliance/ due diligence.
In-Office Workstation Assessments
Our Osteo team are also available to make in-person assessments, either at the office or at home. Get in contact to discuss your requirements.
Ergonomic Desk Solutions
For those that require it, we have teamed up with Workplace.London to offer ergonomic desk solutions and installation. We can supply and install new ergonomic seating, cable management, and laptop solutions depending on the initial assessment findings.
We offer 3 complete desk & chair solutions, including Height Adjustable desks and monitor arms.
1 month later, we will follow up with each employee to ensure that they are working pain-free and that their setup works for them.
