What Is Ergonomics?
Ergonomics is an applied science concerned with the design and arrangement of things that people use to ensure they interact most efficiently and safely.
Simply put, good ergonomics ensures that an employee’s workstation and environment are fit safely and optimally to their unique body, rather than forcing a fit the other way around!

“I found Brian and the Team at Spectrum Ergonomics to be extremely professional and delivered exactly what they promised to Codex and its staff. The assessments were practical and were delivered with great enthusiasm, expertise and in a very relatable manner so that all our staff could see the benefits. All the accompanying materials and communication was really practical and the feedback from staff on the assessments and follow up was extremely positive.”
Patrick, Codex
“Thank you so much for doing the ergonomic assessment recently. I just wanted to let you know that after your initial tweaks to my chair I felt much more comfortable in my home office. I have also changed the chair since and it has made a huge difference to my day. I would definitely recommend this service from Spectrum. Thanks again.”
Charolotte, Cognate
“I have been remote working for a year now and had developed some pains and discomforts based on my desk setup. I was pleasantly surprised with how well my assessment went with the Ergonomist. He advised me how to re-position my screen, chair, mouse, and even how my arms should be angled while working. Over the course of a couple of weeks of practicing these instructions my discomfort faded completely. I’m now acutely aware of how to position myself and my equipment while I work and feel much better for it.”
