What is Ergonomics?

From the Greek meaning:

Ergon - Work

Nomos - Law

Ergonomics involves the blending of the workplace to the worker. During our OSHA compliant ergonomics assessments, we first observe and analyze body mechanics and work place setup. Then, we offer practical, effective solutions to reduce the occurrence of overuse injuries, expenses, and lost work time and to increase productivity, vitality, health, and quality of life.

What are the benefits of Ergonomics?

• Increase Overall Health and Vitality
• Reduce Occurrence of Musculoskeletal Disorders
• Reduce Overuse Injuries
• Reduce Fatigue
• Increase Productivity
• Time Savings
• Decrease Error Rates

When would you hire a Certified Ergonomist?

Ergonomists are asked to consult either reactively or proactively. We encourage everyone to be proactive about their health, yet often times people only learn the importance of ergonomics after they sustain an injury.

Reactive

Ergonomists are called in after an injury is sustained or Worker's Compensation claim is filed. According to CAL OSHA (Occupational Health and Safety Administration) Section 5510 of Title 8 of the California Code of Regulation, Ergonomics is required when a Musculoskeletal Disorder occurs and is caused by an objectively identified work activity to more than one employee within the last twelve months. It should be addressed with an ergonomic program that includes a worksite evaluation, control of ergonomic hazards, and training of employees.

Proactive

Ergonomists are called in to help create training programs that include ergonomics education for new hires and existing workers and design work spaces that promote worker health and safety.

What can I expect from an Ergonomic Assessment?

A Certified Ergonomist will:

• Analyze the Workplace
