Employee Testimonials: “How My Adjustment Changed My Work Life”

When it comes to workplace adjustments, nothing is more powerful than hearing directly from employees about the difference these changes make to their daily lives. While ergonomic assessments, policies, and awareness campaigns are critical, the human stories behind them are what drive understanding, empathy, and organisational commitment.

Here, we share the voices of employees who experienced first-hand how simple ergonomic interventions transformed their comfort, productivity, and wellbeing at work.

“I finally go home without back pain.”

Priya, Data Analyst

“As a data analyst, I spend at least 8-9 hours a day at my desk, analysing large datasets and writing reports. For months, I struggled with constant lower back pain. I thought it was just part of working life until my manager noticed me fidgeting and leaning forward throughout meetings. He arranged for me to get an ergonomic assessment.

They recommended a height adjustable desk and an ergonomic chair with proper lumbar support. At first, I was sceptical, but within a week, I felt a huge difference. Being able to stand for part of the day reduces the pressure on my lower back, and the chair keeps my posture correct. Now, I go home pain-free and have energy left for my family in the evenings.”

“My migraines have reduced dramatically.”

Arjun, Graphic Designer

“I used to suffer from frequent migraines, especially after long hours working on detailed designs. During my ergonomic assessment, I realised my monitor was too low, and I constantly looked down at documents spread on my desk. I received a document holder and a monitor riser as part of my workstation adjustments.

The document holder keeps everything aligned with my screen, reducing neck strain, and my posture has improved significantly. My headaches have reduced, and I feel more focused and less tired by the end of the day.”

“I feel included and supported as a disabled employee.”

Neha, HR Executive

“I have rheumatoid arthritis, which affects my grip strength and causes wrist pain. Before my adjustments, using a standard mouse for long hours was painful. After an assessment, I was provided with a vertical ergonomic mouse that keeps my wrist in a natural position.

The difference is incredible – I can now complete my tasks comfortably without pain or stiffness. It made me feel valued that the company invested in equipment to support my condition without making me feel like a burden.”

“Standing desks have improved my energy levels.”

Rajesh, Sales Manager

“As someone who is always on calls or analysing pipelines, I used to slump in my chair by mid-afternoon. After receiving a height adjustable desk, I alternate between sitting and standing throughout the day. Standing during calls keeps me energised, and my posture has improved noticeably. I feel more alert, engaged, and confident during important client discussions.”

Why employee testimonials matter

These stories illustrate how workplace adjustments are not about luxury or special treatment – they are about enabling employees to perform at their best, comfortably and safely. They build a culture of care, reduce stigma, and encourage others to speak up about discomfort before it escalates into long-term health issues.
