Ergonomic Team Training has become an essential part of our Work Injury Prevention programs for business and industry. It represents a formal mechanism to assure maximum long term effectiveness of any prevention program. Ergonomic Team Training also builds a vital mechanism to assure that the client company is practicing optimum compliance with OSHA Ergonomics Program Final Rule.

Ergonomic Team Training is provided to a select committee of workers, supervisors, managers, engineers, maintenance, safety and health staff. It is presented after you have provided the prevention program sequence of: Ergonomic Work Risk Analysis, Manager Training in Back School and/or Neck-Arm CTD School, and Employee Work Smart Training in the Back School and Neck-Arm CTD School. Ergonomic Team Training is your final program that concludes this sequence.

ErgoTeam Goals and Objectives

• Assure maximum long-term effectiveness of their prevention and ergonomics program, to continue to identify ongoing ergonomic hazards,
• Continue to develop prevention actions to correct ongoing ergonomic hazards, started by the earlier Work Risk Analysis, CTD School, Back School.
• Maximize communication between workers and the company relative to ongoing ergonomic hazards and injury prevention activities,
• Assure that prevention recommendations adopted by the company are actually carried out with maximum effectiveness (including stretching programs, job task rotation, sit-stand options, restricted duty programs, early reporting of pain problems, etc.)

The development and implementation of an Ergonomics Team is an essential component for the company to comply with OSHA Ergonomics Program Guidelines 3123. The IMPACC program has been evolved to closely parallel the OSHA Guidelines. Ergonomics Team training is an essential component to that process.
