Ergonomics

Finding the fit that works.

In its simplest form, ergonomics is finding the right “fit” between workplace and worker. Unfortunately, it’s not as easy as it sounds. Many jobs require frequent or heavy lifting, pushing, pulling or carrying, and many employees have to stand for long periods, perform repetitive tasks or work in awkward positions. The result? Inflamed tendons, elbow and rotator cuff problems, trigger fingers, back sprains and strains, and more—all of which can translate into lost productivity, higher costs and unhappy employees.

We can help. Our Certified Ergonomic Assessment Specialists will take a close look at the ergonomic risks in your workplace. We’ll study each work station or cell and determine how we can make it “fit” every individual who uses it throughout the day. And we’ll provide the tools and training you need to keep work-related injuries down—and productivity up.
