Specialist Ergonomic Assessments for Office Workers
DC Ergonomics provides specialist ergonomic assessments for employees experiencing discomfort, workstation challenges or more complex ergonomic requirements.
Every assessment is carried out personally by David Cavanagh and combines engineering, human factors and ergonomic product expertise to deliver practical, evidence-based recommendations that improve workplace comfort and support long-term employee wellbeing.
Each assessment considers the employee, their role, their workstation and the equipment they use to provide practical solutions tailored to the individual.
Why This Assessment Is Different
Most ergonomic assessments focus primarily on posture and workstation setup.
DC Ergonomics goes further.
Before becoming a full-time ergonomic consultant, David Cavanagh spent seven years designing office seating and ergonomic products with Humanscale.
That experience provides a unique understanding of how office furniture is designed, how it should function and how it performs in real workplaces.
Combined with engineering, human factors and workplace consultancy experience, this allows every assessment to consider both the employee and the equipment being used.
The result is practical, realistic recommendations that are tailored to the individual rather than generic advice.
