Join us in this practical one-hour session, as we work to improve your comfort by learning about the proper way to set up an office workstation. An ergonomist from PROergonomics will be on campus to deliver a brief training session, followed by a personal assessment at your desk.
Training (one-hour): topics covered in the group session will include:
- Proper working height
- Chair set-up
- Keyboard/mouse set-up
- Monitor set-up
- How to use accessories (i.e. headset, foot rest, etc.)
Mini-assessments (20-minutes each): after the group training, session attendees will have an opportunity to sign up for a one-on-one assessment of their office workstation. You must attend the training to be eligible for a personalized assessment.
In each 20-minute time slot, an ergonomist will discuss your concerns, ensure your existing equipment is set up correctly and recommend measures that ensure your workstation is fit to you. You select the timeslot and the ergonomist will come to your desk.
