Workplace Health & Movement Assessments

A modern approach to ergonomics.

An Updated Approach To Work Place Ergonomics

We help organisations ensure their workstations align with HSE Display Screen Equipment (DSE) guidance, supporting businesses in meeting their legal health and safety obligations.

However, traditional DSE assessments often focus only on static posture and workstation setup. While these factors are important, research and clinical experience show that movement habits, workload patterns and physical resilience play an equally important role in musculoskeletal health.

At Oak Park Wellness, we combine HSE-aligned workstation assessments with a broader movement and health approach, helping employees build healthier working habits that reduce pain and improve long-term performance.

This means organisations benefit from:

Compliance with HSE DSE guidance
Practical improvements to workstation setup
Education on movement and healthy work habits
A proactive approach to preventing musculoskeletal discomfort

The result is a workplace strategy that supports both employee wellbeing and business performance.

Our Approach

At Oak Park Wellness, we take a broader view of workplace health. While workstation setup is important, it is only one part of the picture.

Musculoskeletal discomfort is often driven by a combination of:

prolonged static positions
limited movement throughout the day
workload patterns and stress
reduced physical resilience

Our approach combines HSE-aligned DSE assessments with clinical insight and practical education, helping employees understand not just how they sit, but how they move and work throughout the day.

We focus on creating sustainable, realistic changes that employees can implement immediately.

The aim is not simply to adjust the workstation, but to support long-term improvements in:
• comfort
• energy
• performance

The Problem We Solve

Modern workplaces place increasing physical and cognitive demands on employees.

Long hours at desks, repetitive tasks, and sustained focus often lead to:

• persistent neck, shoulder and back discomfort
• reduced energy and concentration
• increased stress and fatigue
• more frequent short-term absence and presenteeism

Many organisations attempt to address this through standard DSE assessments or equipment changes.

However, these approaches often focus only on workstation setup, without addressing the underlying habits that contribute to discomfort over time.

As a result, the same issues continue to reappear — impacting both employee wellbeing and day-to-day performance.
