What is Ergonomics?

It is fitting the work and the work environment to the abilities of the worker to maximize safety, productivity and quality.
   
On average, most companies pay over $75,000 for every injured worker (IAPA Workplace Accident Prevention Study, 1996)
Musculoskeletal Disorders now represent over 50 % of all work-related injuries and are costing Ontario $1.3 billon per year. (IAPA Studies and The Workplace Safety and Insurance Board, Statistics Canada)
Ergonomics is fundamental for competitiveness, quality and injury prevention in the workplace.
Labour is demanding it and governments are legislating it!
