Posture Risk Assessment

Scoring Components

  • Sitting hours: 5 points per hour
  • Missing stretch breaks: 5 points per missing break (below 6/day)
  • Poor ergonomics: up to 10 points

    • Risk Levels

    ScoreRisk 0-25Low 26-50Moderate 51-75High 76+Very high

    Research suggests taking a movement break every 30-45 minutes during prolonged sitting.

    Example Calculation

    8 hours sitting, 3 stretch breaks, average ergonomics.

    1. 01Sitting = 8 x 5 = 40
    2. 02Missing breaks = (6 - 3) x 5 = 15
    3. 03Ergonomics = 5
    4. 04Total = 40 + 15 + 5 = 60 (High risk)
