Course offerings:
The ORI Advanced Ergonomics Course introduces a systems-based ergonomic model.
Participants during this two-day course use an ergonomics variance reduction system to identify the linkages and inter-dependencies between people tools, tasks, procedures, training and management.
These models and systems are applied to reduce the risks of on-the-job injuries and errors. It will also lead to the enhancement of human and system performance through the use of better tools or work methods, better operating procedures, better training, enhanced supervision and management techniques.
You will also learn why regulatory issues, standards and guidelines are a necessary part of ergonomics. We will also cover how to meet existing OSHA recommendations and rules for an ergonomic program, and review the environmental ergonomic issues in office, industrial, and manufacturing environments.
2 CEUs are awarded on completion of this course.
