A Tool for Conducting Ergonomic Audits

Low back injuries associated with manual lifting activities continue to represent one of the most intractable occupational problems facing modern industry. Despite varied efforts at control, including engineering design changes, training on lifting techniques, and worker listing and placement programs, work related back injuries account for a disproportionate amount of human suffering and economic cost to the industry. One of the foremost is the use of ergonomic principles and human factors in the design of equipment systems and procedures can alleviate this problem. This paper develops an ergonomic assessment tool that can be used to analyze the different operations for potential ergonomic risks. Following analyses, the tool helps identify ergonomic interventions to minimize ergonomic risks.
