One is a free app from LEA Postural Analysis by ErgoSante. Includes a video and ergonomic analysis of manual handling e.g factory site etc. Worth checking out. Gives you a high MSK risk stat to help reduce postural risk. 12:44:53 From Mark Howard : What steps do you take if any in recommending workplace adjustments and assistive technology 12:45:41 From Sue Godby : Do you sometimes find that the assessment is helpful for other workers as it identifies different ways of doing things 12:49:00 From Beverly Knops : Many of my clients with cognitive dysfunction/ fatigue who do office based roles which are cognitively demanding may need to look at alternative duties at least in the short term. Again I think they often have ideas . 12:49:54 From Mark Howard : Does the Equality Act come into play when considering your report and recommendations 12:50:27 From Ciara Nolan : When you are asking questions about wages (i.e. will they be paid an hourly rate?

David 13:04:39 From Ciara Nolan : Do you typically shre the activity programme for building up to duties with the employer? 13:07:21 From Mark Howard : Further to earlier question on the Equality Act. Do you find that a pursuit for a ruling under the EqA gets in the way of your work 13:08:10 From Ciara Nolan : Is the WSA used ass an alternative to Occ Health or can it be used in conjunction with Occ health assessments? 13:08:15 From Mark Howard : That is a pursuit by the employer 13:09:52 From Maria Morris : Apologies, I have another meeting to get to. Thanks VRA and Claire for this helpful reminder and educating those new to our field of practice. You may mention this however sometimes the outcome sadly is they cannot return to their job or to that employer and what else may be done to support them if this is the case. E.g Transferable Skills Analysis and help into another job with another employer, apprenticeships or even self employment? I have often supported HR and Occ Health assist a person out of that employment contract into something new. Sure you may have too. 13:11:10 From Sue Godby : Reacted to "Apologies, I have an..." with 👍🏻 13:11:18 From Vocational Rehabilitation Association : Please take a moment to complete our feedback survey here - https://freeonlinesurveys.com/s/YsTWpOCW - Remember all members can get a FREE CPD certificate when completing the survey. 13:11:28 From Vocational Rehabilitation Association : Join us for our online Conference: Delving into the breath of VR across different sectors, Tuesday 28th May - https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/872388857557?aff=oddtdtcreator – Remember, members get 50% discount on Tickets!! 13:11:37 From Vocational Rehabilitation Association : Not yet a member?
