We recently conducted a comprehensive training session on "Workplace Ergonomics" on 17th October 2024 (Thursday) for our management staff, focusing on key aspects such as posture correction, workstation design, safe material handling, and injury prevention. The session aimed to foster a safer and healthier work environment by reducing the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and enhancing productivity. To measure the effectiveness of the training, we conducted pre- and post-assessments, with successful participants receiving certificates for their accomplishment. This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to workplace safety and operational excellence. #Ergonomics #WorkplaceSafety #HSE #ContinuousImprovement #EmployeeWellbeing

A comprehensive ergonomic approach that includes strong management support, employee participation, and proactive solutions can effectively decrease these risks in your workplace. 👉 Here, the OSHA outlines in more detail their recommended process for protecting workers: https://lnkd.in/eKYCaeU #BOSTONtec #ergonomics #OSHA

Did you know 💡 In countries where ergonomics regulation or standards apply there is often an obligation on the employer to proactively rollout an ergonomics program. It is not the responsibility of an employee to request assistance. If you fail to actively educate your employees on good ergonomics practice and/or to assess their levels of risk, there may be evidence of failure. This will likely work against you in the event of an injury. Even if you do have a proactive program, it is essential your records are up-to-date and available. Cardinus Risk Management Ltd has produced a detailed guide to ergonomics regulatory requirements in 191 countries.
