A common challenge with any company or site ergonomics programs is sustaining the activities and results over time, and demonstrating value of the program. This workshop will illustrate the key elements of world class ergonomic programs providing participants an integrated system to recognize, plan for, and better manage their current ergonomics program. The focus will not be on technical aspects of workplace ergonomics, but rather the activities and steps needed to manage and sustain their own programs. The same lessons can be applied to other aspects of Safety Program Management.
