Ergonomic Health In The Workplace

Ergo Valley provides best practice ergonomic services and products leading to prevention of injuries in the work place and home office environments

. The Ergo Valley team excels at empowering employees and employers to avoid ergonomic discomfort and reduce ergonomic injury rates through education; stressing self reliance at work and non-work related activities.

Injury prevention is obtained using advanced ergonomic technology, highly skilled staff, automated remote training applications through partnerships in managing to goals, and empowering employees and individuals to take control of their own workspace health.

The human body is a very complex machine and like any machine, it is susceptible to wear and tear. If a person buys a new car and uses it abusively, it will wear out sooner than if it is treated carefully. The human body is no different. Even though a person has not experienced ergonomic discomforts related to computer use, the more time that goes by, the more risk, especially if poor habits are in use. Eventually something will wear out and start to cause discomfort.

Cumulative trauma discomforts can turn into very painful and activity limiting conditions. It is not unusual for individuals to feel some discomfort, ignore it, and suddenly not be able to use their hand or other body part. The injury is then very inconvenient, debilitating and expensive. It also takes longer to correct and will be more susceptible to re-injury. It is best to prevent injury entirely. Early discomfort recognition and corrective behaviors are well worth while.

If the computer is set up correctly and the individual uses low risk techniques and postures, after a brief adjustment period, the individual will be more comfortable than before the changes were made. Because low risk set up and technique is not generally well understood, many individuals have not had positive experiences with ergonomic adjustments. It is Ergo Valley's primary goal to provide state of the art information based on science and thousands of interactions with ergonomic customers.

One minor adjustment which is easy to implement is the use of an appropriately fitted, sized and mounted keyboard tray that allows for infinite adjustments, quickly and easily. The keyboard tray will allow for small changes in posture and technique within low risk parameters and make it easier to use low risk technique.

With the right knowledge and products, Ergo Valley believes that all cumulative trauma ergonomic computer injuries are preventable. To learn more about Ergo Valley, please visit http://www.ergovalley.com
