Ergonomics Leader "Humanscale" launches campaign to help remote workers stay healthy
- Offers online ergonomic consultations + ‘Work From Home’ workstation
Mumbai,20thApril,2020: In recent weeks the lockdown and social distancing in India has seen thousands
of employees set up an office in their very own homes. In fact, according to
many reports, COVID-19 pandemic could lead to Work From Home (WFH) becoming a
regular thing. WFH is today an accepted norm in many sectors, especially in the
IT sector, as it promotes a good work-life balance and enhances productivity.
However, there is a downside to this. With remote
working on the rise, more and more employees are experiencing pain and discomfort
due to poor workstation setup at their homes.Working from the bed/sofa/dinning
chair at home, however appealing it could be, might do permanent harm to your
posture and productivity. The first step for every home office is to set up a
standard permanent workstation with a good ergonomic chair.
Humanscale, the leading designer and manufacturer of ergonomic office tools that
improve the health and comfort of work life, has launched a campaign in India to
offer online ergonomic consultations + WFH workstation
to support workers. This campaign, targeted at employees who are looking
at a happier, healthier and more productive place to work while at home, is
being organized by Bengaluru based S Cube Ergonomics Pvt. Ltd., the exclusive
India distribution partner of Humanscale.
As most home offices are not ergonomically
optimized, Humanscale's team of board-certified ergonomists is now providing
online ergonomic consultations. ergoIQ LIVE helps professionals ensure their
home offices are healthy and comfortable with direct assistance from certified
professional ergonomists. Improved ergonomic workstation set-ups allow
professionals to perform their tasks with comfort and ease. Virtual
consultations with ergoIQ LIVE will help professionals optimize home workspaces
in 30 minutes or less at a time that’s convenient for them (same day
consultations are available). ergoIQ LIVE is the first-ever online ergonomic
consultation tool with automated set-up.
Payment for consultations can be done online in INR.

“With limited space, working from home can
sometimes feel more like a stressor than a perk. Trying to work comfortably

not only irritating but also potentially bad for your health. Especially for
those living in compact spaces, Humanscale's ergonomic products address your
work from home woes“ said Sathish Nandagopal. Director, S Cube Ergonomics.
