How does a Virtual Ergonomist work?

The Virtual Ergonomist will utilize a comprehensive survey filled out by a participant prior to an evaluation. From that survey, our Virtual Ergonomist will know the details of workstations and equipment, as well as their specific attributes. Specific locations of discomfort and pain as well as the durations, aggravating activities, etc. are also included in the survey. With our extensive database of products and specifications, the VE can quite quickly ascertain likely scenarios that are causing problems for an individual and assist the employee on how to start correcting any issues.
