- Individual ergonomic assessments
- Ergonomics risk assessments
- Manual handling review of educators
- Work environment design risk reviews e.g. older buildings
- Gap analysis of current programs to build and enhance continuous improvement
- Train the trainer courses for ergonomics
- Advise on equipment, design and procurement
- Develop manual handling programs
- Develop policies and procedures for hazardous manual tasks and ergonomics programs, including easy to follow risk registers, checklists, training and intranet content
- We can advise on legislation, Australian standards and industry best practice recommendations
