Ergonomics Self-Assessment Checklist

The Ergonomics Program has developed a Self-Assessment Checklist for people who work in an office setting. This checklist will allow you to go through the process of setting up each component of your workstation ergonomically and can be found on the my.mun.ca portal. If completing the checklist does not allow you to set up a component of your workstation, please send a copy of the completed checklist along with the Request for Ergonomics Assessment form to ergonomics@mun.ca

For more information please call 864-2918 or email ergonomics@mun.ca.
