Healthy Homes Asia

Did you know that if your office or work environment does not create wellness, then it is not good for business?

Bad office furniture, light, stale air - in fact anything that does not make you feel GREAT - is wasting your business time, money and innovation.

This is not about feel good employer-employee relations. Or about a notional corporate social responsibility program.

This is pure business. The bottom line.

If your employees are sick, tired, stressed, or just plain uncomfortable at work, then they are not good for business.

Ergonomics is the science of ensuring a workspace is designed to support all workers, including management and owners.

Research has shown the benefits of a properly designed office space and workstations include:

• decreased pain and discomfort
• improved health and wellbeing
• improved safety in the workplace
• increased staff productivity levels
• increased job satisfaction
• increased work quality
• decrease absenteeism
• decreased staff turnover
• decreased workers' compensation claims
• increased compliance with corporate and governmental occupational health and safety regulations

What if a simple shift to a 'well' work environment made your business more money?

Maybe it's ok? Maybe not. Your body will be telling you if it's not.

An ergonimic assessment can identify how often a few simple changes in the office can boost worker health, and lead to greater productivity and profits.

The assessment includes:

• doing a review of all (some 30) aspects of your workstation, including its desktop layout, workstation furniture and use of all desktop equipment
• identifying any medical and physical issues which have been caused (or worsened) by current work practices, such as eye strain, wrist, back or neck pain
• analysing your seating, posture and ergonomics in performing regular work tasks
• measuing your lighting and sound levels, air quality and other environmental factors
