What is an Awkward Posture?

Awkward postures are commonly seen in the workplace, as they are often required to complete certain tasks. These postures increase tension on the tissues involved, causing them to become stressed and weakened. As a result, the body becomes more susceptible to injury.

The Metriks Office Ergonomics Evaluator Certification is a course designed to review each device and piece of furniture used in an office environment to help improve poor workplace postures. Students will learn how to assess key ergonomic components, use appropriate tools, and identify solutions for common issues. This course promotes healthier habits and improved workplace comfort.
