BAC and Bad Backs
BAC are pleased to announce a supply collaboration with Bad Backs, suppliers of ergonomic office chairs and equipment throughout Australia
In 2011 BAC identified an opportunity to add an additional service to its client base through working with Bad Backs (a supplier of ergonomic seating and accessories operating on the eastern seaboard since the year 2000 and here in WA since 2008) in the provision of ergonomic seating. This collaboration now means that BAC as part of its workplace ergonomic assessment program can provide through Bad Backs when required ergonomic seating delivered to the workplace on a 3 day trial period. This service is completely free of charge with no obligation and includes chair delivery, instruction on use and ergonomic set up.
This now enables our clients to provide their employees with the opportunity to test chairs for effectiveness in addressing those issues identified in our ergonomic assessment’s prior to having to make any purchase decisions.
