Osmond Ergonomics & Wellbeing eBulletin: May 2025

New Brand – New Logo – New Look…

As you can see, there have been a few cosmetic changes to this eBulletin. They reflect the new, inclusive branding and the consolidation of all our activities into the established ergonomics.co.uk website. With the growth in demand for our diversity & inclusion support, it was logical to provide a single platform for everything we do. We have therefore merged all the key content from our former Inclusive Wellbeing Services site and increased the information and resources available in one place. The product store is still there so you can now find everything from a mouse to an office fit-out to co-coaching and EDI strategy all at a single location! Please tell me what you think.

Next In-Person London Event

Following the significant success of our two March events in London, we have now scheduled our next quarterly fixture. It will take place at the new Orangebox London showroom on Wednesday June 18th. I am very excited about the two speakers! It really is a bit of a coup to get them both at one of our events. Check out their profiles and the agenda here – and then book early whilst we still have space. It’s free!

Most Popular Podcast

The May edition (Episode 16) is proving our most popular topic so far. In the first week it was heard by double the usual number of listeners and it’s climbing rapidly up the leader board. Entitled ‘Didn’t I just say that?’, we explored workplace communications and, in particular, how women are not heard – or are just ignored. Paige Hodsman outlined the research she is doing with Dr Nigel Oseland and I found her discoveries a revelation. Find out for yourself here.

Boost Your Workplace Wellbeing

I mentioned our new floor walk service back in February. Since then, the package has evolved in response to customer demand. The floor walk is now part of a half- or full-day package that includes a mix of workshops and one-to-ones as well. This is an ideal added-value ergonomics service that occupational health companies can offer clients – or an effective event you can organise easily through your own employer.

50 Years of Full-Time Work

You may have seen on social media that I celebrated 50 years of working on May 1st. Many people assume I have been active in the workplace wellbeing and ergonomics arena for all my working life but this is far from true. I’ve only been doing that for about 30 years! I’ve taken time to reflect on my career and written a blog about my various business interests going back to childhood. If you’re tempted by a trip down memory lane, it’s here on LinkedIn or here on our website.
