Thank you for visiting this page to find out more about your upcoming equipment installation.

Before we outline the process, is there anything else we need to know before we come to see you? Information such as parking restrictions, access requirements, narrow doorways, staircases, etc. will be very useful in advance. To update us, please contact our Logistics team using planning@ergonomics.co.uk .

Here is what you can expect when we come to install your equipment and show you how to use it. We have 3 objectives:

  • To show you how to make all the adjustments.
  • To demonstrate what good posture looks and feels like.
  • To make sure you know how to achieve it and why you should.

Chair installations:

  • We allow approximately 45 minutes to set up a chair with an individual.
  • We will show you what all the knobs, levers & buttons do.
  • Next, we demonstrate how to configure the chair so it is correctly set for your stature, needs and workstation layout.
  • We explain the reasons for the adjustments (back angle, seat height, armrests, screen height, footrest if needed, etc.)
  • During the process, we encourage you to ask any questions relating to your workstation or the equipment.  
  • Finally, we show you what a good posture looks and feels like so that you know how to maintain it in the future.

Desk installations:

  • We allow approximately 1 – 1½ hours to build and set up a desk for an individual
  • We will demonstrate how the controls and features work
  • show you how to position your keyboard, mouse and monitor(s) correctly on the desk
  • clarify the correct height settings for use whilst seated or standing (and perching, if applicable)
  • show you the correct posture to adopt when standing
  • explain when and how to mix sitting, standing and moving during your working day

Chair and desk installations:

  • We allow approximately 1½ – 2 hours to install and set up a chair and desk to encompass all of the above.

Ergonomics Live: How a Floor Walk Delivered Immediate Impact

The Challenge

A technical team operates in a highly controlled indoor environment, undertaking a combination of intensive screen work and physical tasks involving delicate materials.

Despite having adjustable desks, ergonomic seating, regular DSE assessments and manual handling training, management wanted an independent review to ensure that workstation setups and working habits had not drifted over time.

Our Approach

Osmond Ergonomics & Wellbeing delivered a half-day Ergonomics in Practice Floor Walk, combining:

  • A practical workshop on posture, fatigue and workstation setup
  • One-to-one workstation reviews carried out in the live working environment

Advice was tailored to the team’s specialist equipment, space limitations and physical demands.

The Impact

Out of 14 staff, approximately 50% of workstations were adjusted on the day.

These small but critical changes, including chair height, screen position, and input device placement, immediately reduced strain and improved comfort. The session also refreshed awareness of good working habits, helping prevent the slow return of poor posture that leads to musculoskeletal issues.

Client Feedback

“The session was perfectly pitched for the team. The preparation beforehand made it highly relevant, which is why the team were so engaged.”

Why This Matters

Even in well-managed workplaces, ergonomic drift is common. A simple floor walk delivers quick, measurable improvements that protect wellbeing, reduce injury risk, and boost productivity.

As many services move towards virtual delivery for speed and convenience, this case also highlights the enduring value of being physically present in the working environment. Observing people at work and providing live, individualised feedback allows for nuanced, practical adjustments that simply cannot be replicated remotely.

That’s what makes our floor walking service so valuable and impactful for both individuals and organisations.
