Ergonomics is the scientific discipline of fitting the job or task to the physical dimensions, physical abilities, and mental capabilities of the worker – matching the job to the person. The goal of Ergonomic intervention is to identify, minimize, and eliminate hazards (or risk factors) that may contribute to the onset of musculoskeletal injuries. In this podcast we discuss Ergonomics, Ergonomic risk factors, and Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs), as well as how identifying, assessing, and implementing ergonomic controls can help with injury prevention.
