Ergonomic Care for the Workplace. I work with employers to assess and reduce the risk of work related discomfort and injury for their employees.
January has a way of clarifying things.
Putting sensible plans in place before issues escalate later in the year.
Small, well-timed actions in January often make the rest of the year run more smoothly.

Most ergonomic issues don’t start as incidents.
They start as small, manageable signals

Drive Smart is a short, practical online course designed to help people reduce the risk of discomfort when driving

Ergonomic risk doesn’t stay static.

A proportionate, planned approach supports both compliance and long-term

Most organisations deal with DSE issues as they arise.

Neither approach is “right” or “wrong”.

Comfort at work is sometimes framed as an “extra”.
Something that’s nice to have, but secondary to performance or productivity.
In reality, comfort underpins both.

Ergonomic issues rarely appear overnight.

They usually build slowly — through small discomforts that are easy to overlook in busy workplaces.

Are your teams DSE compliant for 2026?

I regularly cover practical DSE considerations for employers in my newsletter, including compliance, hybrid working & risk management.

Blue Monday often focuses on motivation, energy and morale, but physical discomfort also plays a role.

Addressing ergonomic risks early can support both physical comfort and mental resilience during busy periods.

The first few weeks back at work have a way of revealing what’s been quietly tolerated for a while.

Noticing them early gives you time to fix small issues before they become bigger ones later in the year.

DSE assessments are often treated as a one-off task.

When DSE is treated as part of ongoing risk management — rather than a tick-box exercise — it’s far more effective at supporting both compliance and comfort.

When you run your own business, your workstation isn’t just where you work — it’s where everything happens.
That’s where Desk Smart fits.
It’s about looking after your most important asset — you.

Virtual and in-person DSE assessments both have a place.

A proportionate approach supports compliance while addressing real ergonomic needs.

• DSE sets the compliance baseline
• Ergonomics supports individual optimisation where required

Understanding that distinction helps employers meet their obligations while supporting people properly at work.

If your workstation feels worse this week…
…it’s probably not broken.

It just benefits from a bit of attention, at the right time.

January is one of the easiest times of year to address ergonomic issues.

Addressing these early can prevent avoidable discomfort, reduce disruption later in the year, and support teams as workloads increase.

Hot-desking doesn’t remove DSE responsibilities — it just changes how they’re managed.

Getting the basics right early helps avoid confusion, complaints, and unnecessary risk later on.

January is when small issues surface early — before they turn into patterns of discomfort, reduced productivity or formal complaints later in the year.
Noticing it now gives you options.
Leaving it until later usually limits them

No posture tips.
No desk adjustments.
Just wishing you a peaceful Christmas 🎄

See you in the new year.

Before you log off for the holidays:
Take 5 minutes to reset your desk — clear the surface, centre keyboard and mouse, tidy the cables

Your January self will thank you.

In 2025, it wasn’t always the shiny new equipment that made the difference — it was the small ergonomic changes done properly and consistently.

💬 Over to you: what small ergonomic change made a real difference in your workplace this year?

2026 is closer than it feels — and ergonomics can’t stay on the “we’ll fix it later” list.
