Are your profits being wasted on personal injury claims, absenteeism, high staff turnover and quality problems?

Stress, repetitive strain injury (RSI) and back pain are now the top three causes of work related ill health in the UK, affecting 1.5 million people. These three problems alone cost UK industry at least £5.7 billion per year just for the treatment of physical problems such as back pain and RSI. How much do these issues cost your business?
The root cause of these problems is a physical and psychological imbalance between the capability of the employee and the demands of the job. By making simple changes to the design of workplace equipment and systems you can reduce the risks of personal injury, improve operational efficiency and create a desirable work environment where your employees will feel valued and motivated.

Optimising the design of the work environment improves safety, increases employee job satisfaction and significantly improves productivity.

Elbowroom applies ergonomic principles to work equipment, processes and environments to ensure they are designed with the full range of users in mind. We’ve helped many private and public sector organisations to eliminate the root causes of stress, repetitive strain injury and back pain by ensuring that the demands of the workplace are perfectly in tune with the capabilities and needs of their employees.
Our methods and approach are revolutionary within the field of ergonomic workplace design. We provide our clients with all the knowledge, skills and support they need to achieve a positive result for the people, performance, productivity and ultimately the profit of the organisation.

Please browse this web site for detailed information on how your organisation can create a more desirable working environment for your staff.
