Work Site Preventative and Training Evaluations:

Work site assessments identify potential sources/causes of discomfort, pain, and fatigue; and focus on:

• Improved work practices and techniques
• Adjustments to the work environment

If equipment is needed, a follow-up session is recommended to ensure your employee learns to use the equipment in accordance to ergonomic principles.

A written summary report is generated for each ergonomic assessment performed.
