ESII creates complete client/patient/user process solutions for an optimal experience. ESII’s headquarters are located in Lavérune, South of France, and gather around a hundred partners. ESII includes social and environmental considerations in all of its internal and outer activities. This way, the workgroup “Confort Interne” noticed the possibility to generate progress for the employees’ comfort while they are sitting. In 2018, they decided to renew gradually their seats. Already in collaboration with Montpellier Ergosanté agency (12 agencies in France) concerning
the adjustments made for the posts held by employees with disabilities, the management chose to propose ergonomic seats adapted to the height and needs of each employee.
They selected the ALPHA ERGOSANTE, made by employees with disabilities at only sixty miles from ESII, with a part of its materials coming from recycling channels. In this respect, the imperatives of quality, sustainable development, Societal and Environmental Responsibility, dear to ESII were achieved.
To make an inventory of the employees’ needs, different ALPHA seats with several heights and optional extras (with or without headrests, with or without 3D armrests, synchronous or asynchronous mechanisms) were provided for them during a month. Therefore, each employee involved had the chance to preselect their seat by trying it out at their desks before ordering. Once that the seat was constructed, it was delivered to each employee by an Ergosanté adviser, who explained the adjustments and when it was required, helped to improve the workplaces’ ergonomics.
“An ergonomic seat embodies a cost for the company, but this investment improves the quality of life at work of our employees, who are the main wealth of the company,” says Jean Pierre RICHARD, co-founder and ESII general director. At last, he says: “By choosing Ergosanté, we have supported local employment while getting a strong reactivity and an optimal level of satisfaction: everything we try to offer to our own clients”.
