Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders may emerge as a result of poor ergonomic practices. These disorders can result in costs for both the employer and worker. Examples of these costs include medical visits, worker’s compensation payments, absenteeism, loss of productivity, and increased administration costs. A primary contributor to this can be inadequate or un-optimized workstation design.
Aches and pain are not a “normal” part of the job and can often slow the operator or lead to degradation in quality. Ensuring an optimized workstation will improve operator efficiency and product throughput and significant impacts on the bottom line.
