Spotlight on Industrial Ergonomics
Speaker: Blake McGowan, CPE, Solutions Executive – Industrial Ergonomics, VelocityEHS
An ergonomics management system is the key to a successful and sustainable ergonomics process. It is true, technology can help EHS professionals obtain accurate musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risk assessments. But that doesn’t matter if a solid program that complements the technology and its effective utilization isn’t in place. During this solution spotlight, we’ll identify three key elements you must have to manage an ergonomics process and how VelocityEHS Industrial Ergonomics supports your team to achieve ergonomics success, year after year. We’ll also review how the solution helps build the backbone of your process so you will see a return on your investment, with both increased productivity and improved employee wellbeing.
