Ergolab/Showroom

As part of the injury prevention program, CSU Ergonomics maintains an Ergolab (showroom) for employees to view and test office ergonomics equipment.

Equipment in the Ergolab includes, but is not limited to: chairs, height-adjustable tables,  lighting, keyboards, mice, keyboard trays, etc. Although not mandatory, it is highly recommended that equipment be tried to determine effectiveness, prior to purchase. Equipment and products in the Ergolab are evaluated and tested by certified ergonomists prior to implementation to ensure the highest quality options for employees. Items not in the Ergolab are not approved/recommended items or have yet to be tested. Not all ergonomic options available on the market may be available in the Ergolab. Purchase of equipment and furniture in the Ergolab can be made through CSU approved vendors (where a contract is applicable). This includes furniture, desks, tables, chairs, etc. (The CSU Ergonomics Program is not a distributor and does not sell equipment of any kind). 

In complement to the Ergolab, the CSU Ergonomics Program provides equipment for loan. The loan or trial period (typically ~2 weeks) is free of charge, to assist employees in selecting items for purchase. Not all equipment/furniture may be available for loan. This includes larger items such as chairs and height-adjustable tables. Equipment can be loaned to an employee to take to their home office to try as well. The goal is to determine effectiveness at minimizing exposure to injury risk factors and preventing fatigue, discomfort, and/or pain.

**Due to size limitations, the Ergolab can accommodate a maximum of 4 visitors during an appointment.**
