Lack of proper ergonomics leading to musculoskeletal injuries are responsible for 33% of the injuries in a workplace.  This is a 2-hour class with demonstrations of proper lifting techniques, office workspace adjustments (i.e. chair, monitor or monitors, keyboard placement, desk height and workflow) Field assessments, 300 log injury review.

Learning objectives of ergonomics are:

• To learn the principles of ergonomics and their applications
• To learn about the proper use of equipment, tools, and machine controls
• To use good work practices, including proper lifting techniques
• To become more aware of work tasks that may lead to pain or injury
• To optimize the integration of man and machine in order to increase productivity with accuracy
• To take care of the factors governing the physical and mental strain (i.e. fatigue) so as to get maximum satisfaction for the worker
• To minimize the risk of injury, illness, accidents, and errors without compromising productivity
