In addition, we organized events dedicated to Medicover employees, including the April ergonomic webinar entitled: “Office and Home Ergonomics. How to ensure comfort and efficiency of work." Over 100 people took part in this event (pic.2).  

The webinar was dedicated to employees of offices and medical facilities who work with computers for at least part of their working day. Its goal was to increase awareness of the impact of new digital technologies on people and the places where they do their work, in line with the message of the Ergonomics Team, which is as follows:

“Employee health is a priority, which is why we would like to provide our employees with the necessary knowledge and skills needed to ensure ergonomic working conditions, which will contribute to reducing the risk of injuries, back pain and other ailments experienced during the day. We provide practical tips and ready-made solutions that will help create ergonomic working conditions both in the office space and at home”.
