To the point about Ergonomics - APTP15
Description
When parts of our bodies are subjected to awkward positions, we risk the development of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). Using proper work practice controls in both office and industrial settings can prevent these types of injuries. This program discusses how workers can use these controls to reduce, control or eliminate ergonomic risk factors. Topics include engineering & administrative controls, work practice controls for various body parts, how to lift & carry loads properly, and how & why to report symptoms of MSDs.
Understanding & Controlling Ergonomic Risk Factors - AP4761S SPANISH
Description
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.
