Ergonomics In The Workplace Safety Training

This training is essential for employees across various roles, from labor-intensive positions to office workers. Implementing ergonomic principles effectively can significantly reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injuries—the most common workplace injury in the United States. These soft tissue injuries affect the back, shoulders, knees, hands, and more. The best part? They are highly preventable. Let us guide you on how to avoid them!

Although federal OSHA has not yet established a dedicated standard for ergonomics, some states are beginning to outline specific requirements. Regardless, musculoskeletal disorder prevention is covered under the General Duty Clause, which mandates employers to maintain a safe and healthy workplace.

This training includes:

• A 20-minute video course
• Identifying ergonomic risk factors related to posture and lifting
• Recognizing early signs of ergonomic issues and intervening before they escalate into injuries
• Practicing safe lifting techniques and proper movement patterns
• Adopting preventative strategies to minimize the risk of musculoskeletal injuries
• Learning resilience-building techniques inspired by athletes to aid in quick recovery
