    Overview:

    Office ergonomics impacts every workplace in the world. Whether a corporate HR/H&S Manager with hundreds of employees or an entrepreneur working from a home office, ergonomics plays a role in the comfort and productivity of yourself and your employee(s).

    This webinar will review methods to most effectively manage MSD injuries in the office, considering proactive and reactive assessment practices, procurement and equipment standards, and training and education designed to improve employee work practices and equipment set-up.
