Office and Industrial Ergonomics

CIH Ergonomics LLC can help your company reduce work-related musculoskeletal injuries by matching the activities of the job to the physical capabilities of the worker.  By identifying and alleviating the underlying or root cause of such injuries, we can assist you in reducing incidence and associated costs involved.  Evaluations include detailed, onsite, objective measurement of workplace ergonomic factors.  Specific examples of ergonomic services we provide include the following.         

• Standardized methods of ergonomics evaluation such as REBA, RULA, and the NIOSH Lifting Formula, which determine the level of risk for potential employee injury.
• Program development to assist you in reviewing your current ergonomic program and create a long term, strategic, and customized plan.
• Office and industrial ergonomics training specific for you and your employees' applications.
• Create a work break regimen and stretching/exercise program tailored to your employees and workplace operation.
• Questionnaire designed to determine baseline discomfort levels, which identifies those more likely to suffer an injury.
• Workstation evaluations designed as a preventative or post-injury measure.  This in-depth devaluation provides you with implementable recommendations.
• Comprehensive reports which identify potential risk factors with prioritized recommendations that target work techniques and effective use of proper equipment.
• Workstation follow up visits ensure that recommendations are implemented properly and employee discomfort levels are decreased.
