Ergonomic Health & Support
**FEBRUARY 2024 UPDATE:***
PBSCI Facilities will continue to provide the standard, in-person ergonomics assessments and provide recommendations, however our ergonomic furniture budget has been depleted for the fiscal year 2024 and we are no longer able to fulfill ergonomic furniture orders. Please reach out to your department to inquire if they can fund ergonomic equipment purchasing – PBSCI Facilities can assist in processing and compiling the paperwork necessary to receive the ERGOCruz rebate.
PBSci Facilities provides standard preventive ergonomic assessments for faculty, staff, and graduate students within the Division. This includes an in person assessment of your workspace as well as recommendations for equipment and your overall office or lab set up.
A representative from PBSci Facilities will be the first level assessor to evaluate your ergonomic case. To get started, please complete the UCSC online training and assessment module then submit the short questionnaire below.
- Log into the Learning Center for Risk & Safety Services and complete the Computer Ergonomics Self-Assessment module.
NOTE:
If you have trouble accessing the training/self-assessment please consult your Departmental head or Manager to confirm you have access to the UCSC Learning Center. If you experience technical issues with the module once logged in, please contact: service@riskandsafetysolutions.com - Fill out this form (requires you to upload your training certificate)
Once we receive the completed form and training certificate, we will reach out to schedule an in person evaluation with you.
Below are some Additional Resources and quicklinks with information and helpful links to a variety of healthy ergonomic practices and tips for both office and laboratory workstations, as well as resources and recommendations for remote work.
