Ergonomic Workplace Assessment
Jason is a 41-year-old office-based professional who was referred for occupational therapy due to increasing discomfort and fatigue related to prolonged computer work. He reported neck and shoulder tension, intermittent wrist discomfort, and frequent headaches, particularly after long periods of desk-based tasks.
Jason also noted reduced productivity due to discomfort, frequent repositioning, and difficulty maintaining focus during the workday. He was concerned that his workstation setup may be contributing to his symptoms and wanted support to improve comfort, efficiency, and long-term work sustainability.
Ergonomic assessments play an important role in identifying environmental and task-related factors that contribute to pain, fatigue, and reduced work performance. Occupational therapy interventions focus on optimizing workstations, improving posture, and developing sustainable work habits.
Through individualized recommendations and practical strategies, individuals can reduce discomfort, prevent injury, and improve overall productivity and well-being in the workplace.
