Tech-Driven Ergonomics: Streamlining Processes for Better Risk Management

In the realm of risk management, we know it’s better to be proactive and that prevention is the best strategy. But that’s easier said than done when working with limited budgets and the human element. Safety doesn’t happen by accident and ergonomics teams have their work cut out for them with ergonomic injuries or musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) accounting for at least 35% of all non-fatal occupational injuries and related worker’s compensation costs.

Despite knowing how critical effective ergonomic risk management is to improving worker health, lowering incident rates and reducing associated costs, many organizations struggle with financial restraints that hinder their ability to implement the necessary controls. So, what’s the solution?

Join Cority’s Kim Moull, CCPE and CEO of Inseer, Shane Larson as they explore how leveraging technology to streamline processes and optimize resources with a holistic and integrated approach can transform your ergonomic risk management and enhance the effectiveness of your ergonomic programs.

In this session, we will discuss:

  • Identifying common obstacles and trends that organizations face in managing ergonomic risks effectively
  • The importance of a comprehensive approach to overcoming ergonomic risk issues
  • Strategies for leveraging technologies and integrating ergonomics with existing health and safety practices
  • How ergonomics software and video motion capture technology can enhance your risk management efforts and improve employee health, safety and wellbeing across your organization
