What’s the Webinar About?
Did you know that 30–35% of all workplace injuries are musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs)—and that they account for nearly 40% of direct injury costs each year? These injuries impact productivity, morale, and the bottom line.
But here’s the good news: ergonomics doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. You don’t need costly automation, robotics, or AI to make a difference. Small, smart changes to the way work gets done can dramatically reduce injuries, improve employee well-being, and boost efficiency.
In this webinar, we’ll break down ergonomics in a simple, practical way and share real-world, low-cost solutions that you can start using immediately—no matter your industry or budget.
Who Should Attend: Operations & Facility Managers, Plant Managers, Construction Site Managers and Supervisors, EHS Specialists and Representatives, Security Managers, and Human Resources Managers. Feel free to invite your colleagues!
We Will Discuss:
- The Science Behind Ergonomics – What ergonomics really means and why it matters in every workplace.
-
Root Causes of MSDs – How tasks, equipment, and environments contribute to injuries—and what to watch out for.
- Practical Prevention Strategies – Easy, cost-effective changes that protect workers, reduce injuries, and increase productivity.
-
Implementation Tips – How to gain management buy-in, train staff, and sustain your program over time.
