From a fit and engaged workforce to a productive workforce delivering optimal performance, ergonomics can help businesses transform how people in offices work - and that’s the motto of Fit For Work. The idea behind building this app is those job roles are unique and each comes with its own physical and health challenges. Providing the ideal workstation setup based on work demands can play a critical role in ensuring productivity and job satisfaction. With custom ergonomics services and a wide range of services, the platform aims to reduce risks within the workplace while balancing comfort.

How we help: We think this is a next-level idea and something we are thrilled to work on. The back pain, shoulder ache, headache - professionals are complaining of the inconveniences all the time. This platform helps corporates transform their ergonomics structure in order to make life easier for the regular office-guy. We find this a lot more relevant today with people working remotely from home and often not being optimally productive due to ergonomics challenges.

At Day One our focus has been to build a platform that is edgy, functional, and visually arresting. The platform is a match of stellar designing, result-driven UI/UX elements, and smart technology to engage visitors and users. It also pays attention to quality content that provides useful information on the subject. The wide range of services offered (workstation assessment, office moves, and first day, workshops, on-site ergonomics) further called for an advanced architecture that facilitated actions to be completed with minimal taps.
