Ergonomics for workspaces and our branch annual meeting

About this event

Insightful session for ergonomic workspaces with research posters of Master’s HRM students and CIPD prizes

Join us for a dynamic and engaging event, structured into three key parts:

1. Dissertation poster showcase
   The event will begin with a showcase of dissertation posters by MA Human Resource Management students from the University of Greenwich. Guests are invited to explore the posters, engage directly with the students, ask questions, and provide feedback on their research.
2. Ergonomics and workplace wellbeing session
   This will be followed by an informative session led by Antony, focusing on creating ergonomic workspaces and improving posture to reduce stress, strain, and injury. Antony will share practical tips and demonstrate the use of ergonomic equipment to promote healthy working habits.
3. Annual meeting & awards ceremony
   The event will conclude with the annual meeting, where committee members will be introduced and key updates will be shared. Awards will also be presented to outstanding students from both Undergraduate and Postgraduate HRM programmes.
