Despite reports that the number of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) has declined in recent years because of widespread awareness and implementation of effective preventive measures, ergonomics remains a big and important workplace safety and health issue. MSDs still affect workers in almost every industry and occupation, and an emphasis on workplace ergonomic principles continues to offer the best solution for reducing the risks.
Office workers who spend many hours each day working on computers are particularly vulnerable to MSDs such as carpal tunnel and tendinitis. These and other MSDs cost employers millions, if not billions, of dollars every year in medical costs and lost workdays.
This training program provides all the relevant information on Office Ergonomics.
When the training is completed, trainees will be able to:
- Define ergonomics and MSDs.
- Identify MSD risk factors.
