‘Your service was friendly, fast and efficient. You gave us exactly what we asked for and more. The report contained comprehensive information and included suggestions and alternative methods to address our ergonomic challenges.’ - Dr Wika Esterhuizen, SHE Advisor – SABRIX

‘ErgoFocus provided us with great service. We required in-depth scan done to establish whether our building can accommodate physically challenged, visually and hearing impaired people. They kept to agreed timelines, understood our brief and provided a comprehensive report. All in all, we were happy and would gladly refer others to the business’ - Tshepiso Chocho, Human Capital Generalist - SASRIA

'Esmeralda carried out an ergonomic assessment of our office furniture and all our staff. She presented first on why ergonomics is important in an office environment. It was very informative and Esmeralda really demonstrated her excellent skills in this area'- Marloes Reinink, Owner – Solid Green Consulting

'Ergofocus provided an in-house training course. The Ergo-Risk Tool is very comprehensive and an excellent tool that does not only provide scientific evidence but can also be used to create awareness in the workplace. Thank you for sharing your skills & in-depth knowledge of ergonomics.'- Joretha Olivier, Occupational Hygienist - Necsa

'The Ergonomics course was money well invested. It opened my eyes to not only an environment where hard physical labour is involved, but also to the person sitting stationary for 7 hours behind his/her desk. With the knowledge I acquired and the various tools I can provide more scientific proof and evidence to my proposals in order to rectify non-compliance.'Once again Es, thank you for a great course. Marietjie du Plessis Health & Safety Specialist Saab Grintek Defence
