We Are Also Good At Preventing Injuries
Members of the Occupational Medicine staff are skilled at
performing on-site job design assessments. These reviews
of the work place, specific jobs and detailed job descriptions
help us work together to reduce the likelihood of work
place accidents and injuries occurring. If our macro-level
evaluation indicates the need for further study, we can
facilitate a full ergonomic analysis of a specific job
or work station, or of your entire facility. Complete ergonomic
analysis can be provided.
In addition to preventing injury, job design assessments
allow our staff to become familiar with your work site. With
this information we can make more informed recommendations
