Office Ergonomics

This unique approach to Ergonomics training, begins by asking each viewer to select what area of their body, if any, is experiencing pain or discomfort. They are shown common postures that can cause or contribute to the conditions. The viewer is then lead through a comprehensive and specific method of adjusting a workstation to maximize neutral postures and minimize pain, discomfort and strain. This program also points out the multitude of other factors outside of the workplace that can contribute to musculo-skeletal disorders. This encourages viewers to take steps to adopt neutral postures in all of their activities.

Designed to raise awareness of safety hazards in an office environment. This video focuses on the most common hazards found in an office. Video discusses basic ergonomics, ladders, office equipment, slips and falls, safe lifting, fire prevention and more.

Ergonomics can be complicated, but this program provides a simple explanation all employees can understand. Ergonomic controls are used in almost all workplaces to prevent musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), often called cumulative trauma disorders or repetitive stress injuries. Workers often ignore the signs and symptoms of these disorders until a chronic condition has developed and they often don’t know the measures they can take to prevent them. That’s the purpose of this program–to explain what ergonomics and musculoskeletal disorders are and the measures your organization takes to control ergonomic risk factors. More importantly, the program reviews work control practices that workers can follow to prevent musculoskeletal injuries and illnesses. It also features both office and industrial settings to illustrate important lessons about ergonomics.
