About this event
Every organization today is pushed to do more with less. In this session, you will learn how an ergonomically designed workstation can safely improve your productivity and shorten cycle times while reducing repetitive motion injuries.
Description:
The Ergonomics Center of North Carolina; NC State University recently conducted an in-depth study to evaluate if there are quantifiable benefits from using workstations with ergonomic features versus workstations that do not. The study is based on a time and motion study of assembly and packaging tasks performed on modular workstations.
The study results are the basis for detailed recommendations for adjustments to typical workstation designs to improve productivity and accuracy while reducing ergonomic risk factors.
Although automation has made significant advances, human operators still perform many tasks; often, these tasks are the more difficult and repetitive ones. Designing a work environment for today’s diverse workforce that reduces repetitive motions, awkward postures, and heavy lifting is an essential factor in reducing operator strain and injury, all while improving productivity.
