Designed for:

Employers seeking a systematic approach to workplace ergonomics across office, industrial, warehouse, maintenance, transportation, and field operations.

Important:

Federal OSHA does not have a universally applicable ergonomics standard requiring every employer to maintain a written ergonomics program. The OSH Act General Duty Clause, applicable OSHA standards, and state-specific requirements may apply depending on the workplace and hazards.

This program must be reviewed, customized, and implemented for your organization's actual operations and applicable requirements. Ergonomic screening tools and assessment methods are not substitutes for qualified evaluation when needed.
