Because most people’s home offices are not ideal from an ergonomic perspective, Humanscale‘s team of board-certified ergonomists is offering a new service providing online ergonomic consultations for anyone who needs them. ergoIQ LIVE will enable professionals setting up their home offices to ensure they are healthy and comfortable with direct assistance from a certified professional ergonomist. Improved ergonomic workstation setups allow professionals to perform their tasks with comfort and ease, ensuring their focus is on the work and not on the workstation.
Virtual consultations with ergoIQ LIVE will help professionals optimize their work-from-home setups in 30 minutes or less. The process is simple. Professionals can choose a date and time that works for them (same day consultations will be available), and can upload photos of their workstations if they’d like, for a personalized assessment. During the consultation, which can be on video or voice-only, a Humanscale ergonomist will offer expert guidance on proper workstation setup specific to their unique body dimensions, diagnose any potential equipment-related problems, and provide guidance on postural improvement and behavioral modification. Following the consultation the ergonomist will provide a summary report of their recommendations and Healthy Workstation Guidelines.
ErgoIQ LIVE is the first online ergonomic consultation tool with automated signup. It provides online, on-demand access to Humanscale’s network of 60 certified ergonomists. Consultations are available outside the U.S. and payment can be made in local currencies by credit, debit or via PayPal. You can learn more about this service here.
In further efforts to support those transitioning to a work-from-home lifestyle, Humanscale has offered a Work From Home Guide and is offering a 20 percent discount across work-from-home solutions, as well as special programs for employees of all of Humanscale’s current corporate customers.
