Significance of Ergonomics Statistics
Ergonomics statistics describe how workplace design affects employee health and productivity. They determine musculoskeletal diseases and ergonomic-related work injuries. These statistics help companies discover issues, justify ergonomic improvements, and track their efficacy. Ergonomics statistics help companies develop safer, more comfortable workplaces that benefit employees.
How to Prevent Ergonomic Hazards in the Workplace?
Multi-step strategy is implemented to prevent workplace ergonomic hazards. Initially, workplace ergonomic risk assessment is essential to discover risk issues and fix them with design modifications. Second, ergonomic training decreases risks by teaching workers effective ergonomic tools and equipment use and finally encouraging breaks and employment rotation to reduce repetitive activities risks.
