Many of us perform much of our work in sitting in front of a computer. The human body is generally not designed to sit for extended periods of time or to perform repetitive tasks on the computer. A safe and comfortable workstation is essential in reducing and preventing strain on our muscles and joints, and help reduce fatique, headaches and enhance productivity.

Come to this informative session as it will:

  • Introduce the concept of ergonomics.
  • Describe the types of risk factors that pertain to an office computer workstation.
  • Show you how to set up a safe, healthy and comfortable workstation.
  • Provide an overview of good work practices that can prevent or minimize injury and discomfort.

To register for this and other workshops, please go to www.humber.ca/ssaw/spring-2014 and log in to set up your account. You will be sent an email to create your password. Then log back in and select the courses you wish to attend.
