Ergonomic Consulting Group

“It is critical to get help when you notice the first symptoms of repetitive strain. If you are an employee, tell your supervisor you have a concern. If you are an employer consider putting together a policy that encourages your staff to report symptoms early so more serious problems do not develop.  If you need a questionnaire or ideas on how to introduce an ergonomic policy, just let us know.  We would be glad to help. Our mission is to help prevent the spread of repetitive strain injuries and assist those that are suffering from them.”

It is that time of year again for the National Ergonomics Conference.  If you are interested in current employer practices, leading technology, or evaluation techniques for reducing injuries you may want to be there. Vegas is the place.
