To initiate the Ergonomic Evaluation for your Campus Workstation, start by reviewing this page for CHABSS ergonomic guidelines and then visit the SH&S Ergonomics website to begin the process. CHABSS is no longer approving home office ergonomic equipment.
The Dean's office will not be issuing reimbursments for ergonomic equipment purchased after May 1st, 2023. Will resume reimbursments for purchases after May 1st, 2023 in the new fiscal year July 2023.
Reimbursement
When you have completed your evaluation with SH&S they will advise you on the support tools and equipment that you could purchase. The items you choose to purchase will be purchased by the department AC with your departments funds and then they will submit the ESTE form to SH&S for reimbursement. Note that the department will only be reimbursed for items vetted by SH&S.
- Items less than $100 are fully reimbursable by SH&S
