productivity and quality. But is it affordable?
This interactive workshop will
provide you with ideas for effective, low-cost ergonomic solutions.
Through case studies and discussion, Terry Snyder will draw on 20 years
of experience to show how cost-effective solutions can be implemented.
Topics will include methods to identify risk for injury and roadblocks
to productivity, overcoming common obstacles to effective
implementation, and methods to evaluate success.
