What is it?
The intention of this campaign is to bring public awareness to their working environment and the role physiotherapists can play in reducing aches and pains, increase working longevity, and further demonstrate the benefits of a physiotherapist’s input in all areas of life. Our message is that physios are experts in both workplace and at-home ergonomics, and that more can be done for comfort at work than referring to management. The campaign is designed to educate the public and encourage them to see a physiotherapist if they find themselves struggling with work-related pain.
Why Ergonomics?
We believe that ergonomics is an area that hasn’t received enough attention given the sizeable shift towards working from home that there has been in recent years. We want to help as many people as possible who may be unknowingly affected by a poor working environment. The areas of focus are:
- Reducing work-related injuries
- Work longevity
- Productivity in work
- Improving work conditions
- Improving quality of life
As healthcare professionals it is important to inform the masses about the health implications of a poor working environment and give them the tools to correct it.
