Ask an ergonomist - Q&A sessions

Ask an ergonomist Q&A sessions are an opportunity to ask any workplace-specific questions you have around manual handling concerns and setting up safe and ergonomically healthy workplaces.

Facilitated by ergonomists, the sessions will provide free, customised advice for your situation, and also allow you to hear from others in a range of industries.

Real life case studies will also be discussed in each session.
