Ergonomics

Ergonomics is the science of the body doing work. Whether you're typing on a keyboard or serving food in a restaurant, you're doing basic ergonomic principles.  

Studies show that poor attention to ergo issues often lead to workplace injuries. Soft tissue injuries are the fastest growing injury category, especially in office environments.

How do you address ergonomic issues? One way is to periodically train your employees on how to recognize workstation ergo problems and how to make adjustments.
