Ergonomic strain
Musculoskeletal load from posture, repetition, force, manual handling and the physical workstation — the body's capacity to do the work.
The cost of ignoring ergonomic strain
MSDs are about a third of all work-injury cases and the primary driver of multi-week presenteeism. This is Ergocure's live beachhead — assessed across six ergonomic risk factors and seven validated methods.
Key measurement pillars
What an Ergocure assessment captures for ergonomic strain.
Postural angular analysis
Automated scoring of deviation from anatomical neutral using RULA, ROSA, and REBA.
Frequency & duration profiling
Identifying high-frequency task cycles (under ~30 seconds) that drive localised micro-trauma.
Biomechanical load
Tracking force vectors during manual lifting, pushing, and pulling using the NIOSH equation.
Six ergonomic risk factors
Ergonomic strain breaks down into six measurable risk factors. Each is scored by validated methods, computed automatically and validated by a certified ergonomist.
Postures
How the body is held while working — sitting, standing, bending, twisting, reaching.
Environment
The physical conditions around the work — lighting, noise, temperature, vibration, air.
Global & Psychosocial
Whole-job factors — workload, stress, autonomy, shift patterns, and reported discomfort.
One engine, every dimension
The same assessment engine powers every workforce-health dimension. Ergonomic strain is live today; the rest follow the same path.
