Frequently asked questions

An ergonomic risk assessment measures how a person's posture and workstation load their body, then scores that strain against validated clinical frameworks — like RULA, ROSA and REBA — to flag injury risk before it becomes pain or absence.

A desk height assessment checks whether your desk, chair and monitor heights match your body so your elbows, wrists, neck and back stay in neutral postures. Ergocure's free Desk Check gives you personalised desk, chair and monitor targets in under two minutes.

A worker films their workstation on any smartphone — no app to install. AI extracts joint angles on-device and scores posture against eleven validated clinical frameworks. A certified ergonomist reviews and signs off every result before the worker receives a personalised report.

Yes. Video never leaves the device, face-blur is mandatory, consent is versioned, and employers see aggregate data only. Ergocure is DPDPA-compliant and audit-ready for the OSH Code 2020 and SEBI BRSR.

Yes. Where cameras aren't permitted, the same assessment runs as a structured text survey across the same frameworks, with the same certified-ergonomist sign-off.

Manual ergonomic assessments typically cost ₹5,000–15,000 per employee and take weeks. Ergocure delivers the same clinical standard at a fraction of the cost and at enterprise scale — contact us for pricing.

India's OSH Code 2020 (in force from November 2025) makes occupational health and safe working conditions enforceable, and SEBI's BRSR Principle 3 requires listed companies to disclose employee wellbeing. Ergonomic risk assessment is how organisations evidence both — and EU/UK-headquartered GCCs also inherit home-country DSE obligations for their India staff.

On the RULA scale of 1–7, a grand score of 1–2 is acceptable, 3–4 means further investigation and change may be needed, 5–6 means investigate and change soon, and 7 means investigate and change immediately. Ergocure computes the RULA score from posture automatically, then a certified ergonomist validates it.

RULA (Rapid Upper Limb Assessment) focuses on the neck, trunk and upper limbs for seated, screen-intensive work; REBA (Rapid Entire Body Assessment) scores the whole body for varied, dynamic tasks like patient handling and assembly. Ergocure runs both — plus ROSA, NIOSH, OCRA, JSI and OWAS — from one assessment.

Most programmes reassess at least annually, and sooner when a workstation, role or reported discomfort changes — with more frequent screening for higher-risk roles. Because Ergocure runs on any phone or as a text survey, continuous re-screening across the whole workforce is practical rather than a once-a-year audit.

Ergocure runs eleven validated clinical frameworks across the posture, load and repetition risk families — RULA, REBA, ROSA, NIOSH, OCRA, JSI, OWAS, LUBA, Liberty Mutual, MMC-ISO and RPA — plus validated questionnaire-based surveys such as NASA-TLX and CVS-Q. Each is built from its primary-literature method on a shared engine, so the right tool is applied to each task rather than one method stretched across all of them.

Yes. ISO 45001 Clause 6.1.2 requires you to assess ergonomic risk, and it triggers the technical ISO ergonomic standards — ISO 11228-1 (manual lifting), ISO 11228-2 (pushing, pulling and carrying), ISO 11226 (static posture) and ISO 9241 (office / display-screen work). Ergocure's methods map directly to these — NIOSH and MMC-ISO for ISO 11228-1, Liberty Mutual for 11228-2, RULA / REBA / OWAS for ISO 11226, and ROSA for ISO 9241 — each scored at scale and signed off by a qualified ergonomist for your audit file.

Yes. Ergocure India operates an ISO 45001:2018-certified occupational health-and-safety management system, with a registered scope covering ergonomic assessment, audit, consultation, training and intervention. It means a managed, audited, repeatable service rather than ad-hoc consulting.

They are the capture modes for the same validated methods. QUICK is a guided phone-camera capture; TEXT is a camera-free structured survey for environments where cameras aren't permitted; HYBRID combines camera and survey inputs; and COMBINED runs several methods together, each in the mode that suits it. Every mode ends in the same certified-ergonomist sign-off.

Every assessment generates occupational-health data that maps to SEBI BRSR Principle 3 (employee wellbeing, health and safety). Aggregate workforce-coverage and risk metrics feed your BRSR line items and board-level ESG 'S'-pillar disclosures directly — turning ergonomic risk work into reportable, audit-ready data.

The OSH Code 2020 (in force from November 2025) makes occupational health and safe working conditions enforceable, with documented hazard identification and risk assessment. Ergocure produces clinician-signed, retained assessment records that populate your HIRA and stand up as documented, audit-defensible evidence of ergonomic-hazard control.
