Office Ergonomics
Whether
working in an office environment, telecommuting from home, or
"surfing the Internet," a computer is a valuable tool.
But using it incorrectly can take its toll on the human body.
The home and work office need to fit the employee, his or her
unique physique, the job tasks performed and the style in which
the employee works. An ergonomically correct office will help
increase productivity, physical comfort, and concentration and
decrease the risk for injury, eyestrain, and physical and mental
stress.

Material Handling
An ergonomic assessment of
job tasks in a warehouse distribution center, assembly or other
material handling divisions can identify those risk factors that
could contribute to serious soft tissue injuries. Observations
of how the workers interface with their job tasks can be immensely
useful in assisting management as they set priorities for injury
prevention interventions. Identification of body mechanics and
work style can educate employees on how to use their bodies efficiently
and safely to perform work activities, as well.
