The American Telecommuting Association Presents:
"What Employers Should Know About Telecommuter
Ergonomics"
|
Here's a vital new report that will help management
reduce exposure of the organization's telecommuters to ergonomic
hazards that can develop so easily in workspaces located away
from the central office.
From The Report's Introduction:
Ergonomics programs can significantly reduce
work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). In general, the
most successful programs have certain core elements in common.
But given the wide disparities in conditions that obtain where
ergonomics programs are most needed, not all ergonomics programs
can or should take the same approaches or follow the same implementation
path.
Critically important factors in planning
a successful ergonomics program must include the work to be done,
the organization or corporate culture, and actual experiences
of real people as the program evolves. An approach designed to
implement or manifest the core elements in a simple, informal
manner is all that's needed to achieve positive results.
Fortunately, any changes required to support
an effective ergonomics program for telecommuters, and other
employees, do not normally require significant investment or
resources and do not drastically change the job or operation.
Once in place, an effective ergonomics program
can be expected to yield important benefits, including reductions
in workers' compensation costs associated with MSDs, reductions
in overall injuries, illnesses, and the number of days injured
employees miss work, as well as improved worker morale, productivity,
and quality.
