Step 4: Book an ergonomic assessment

Ergonomic assessments must be completed in a timely manner to help prevent further injury.

The external service provider completes in-person ergonomic assessments.  For special circumstances a virtual assessment will be completed.  Applicable fees apply - department approval is required.

1. Complete the office ergonomic assessment approval and consent form and submit your approval form within 3 business days of your assessment referral recommendation.
2. Once the approval and consent form is received, the external service provider will contact you within two business days to schedule your appointment.
3. Once the assessment is completed, the report recommendations will be available within five business days.

Departments are responsible for approval and purchase of assessment fees and furniture /equipment recommendations, related to your permanent workstation. Refer to your Blue Cross Wellness spending account for equipment and furniture costs not related to your permanent workstation.
