Book excerpt: One of the greatest challenges in the occupational health and safety profession is the application of theory to actual workplace practice. The difference between how the workplace should be ideally designed and the limitations that occur in pre-existing facilities are often difficult to overcome. With examples from the service industry, heavy industry, agriculture, and the office, this text bridges these gaps between theory and practice by using case studies to illustrate sound ergonomic practices. The Ergonomic Casebook is a resource that professionals and students can use as a guide for solutions to real-world ergonomic problems. Working examples from ergonomic programs in a variety of industries are included. Case studies describe methods for identifying ergonomic problems, and specific causes are reported. Recommended strategies for the elimination of identified stressors are indicated. Implemented strategies and evaluated results are discussed and explained. Applications of this book are endless. Whether you are a health and safety professional with limited expertise in ergonomics or a student taking a health and safety course, you will gain extensive insight into ergonomic problem solving as a result of the case studies presented in The Ergonomic Casebook.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Develop a healthier connection between worker and work with this practical introduction The United States Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that 34% of all workdays lost each year are the result of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). These disorders result from a mismatch between a worker, their working conditions, and the task they perform. Improperly designed tasks or equipment, insufficient downtime between shifts or tasks, or even simple sitting position can all produce WMSDs. The key insights into preventing these disorders are produced by ergonomics, the scientific study of human bodies as they relate to objects, systems, and environments, especially work environments. Occupational Ergonomics: A Practical Approach aims to supply an ergonomic toolkit for creating healthier relationships between workers’ bodies and their work. Beginning with a set of foundational ergonomic principles, it then details multiple assessment techniques in ways easily adapted to specific workplace situations. This balance of theory and practice has made Occupational Ergonomics an essential reference concerning human beings and the work they do. Readers of the second edition will also find: Up-to-date ergonomic research reflecting the latest clinical and workplace data. Entirely new chapters on Work Physiology, Total Worker Health, Return on Investment, and more. Major revisions to chapters on Elements of an Ergonomic Program, Workstation Design, Work-Related MSDs, How to Conduct an Assessments, and Office Ergonomics Detailed and updated case studies applying ergonomic assessment techniques to common workplace scenarios. Occupational Ergonomics is a must for workplace safety managers, safety coordinators, ergonomics program coordinators, facilities managers, and any professionals concerned with the work environment, and worker health and safety.

Book excerpt: Back pain is a leading cause of suffering, high medical costs, andloss of productivity in the workplace. Through a multidisciplinaryapproach, this book addresses the widespread problem ofmusculoskeletal injuries in general and lower back injury inparticular. It presents the principles of ergonomics andbioengineering and their application to the prevention andrehabilitation of lower back injuries. Special attention is givento ergonomic methodologies such as human performance analysis andfunctional capacity assessment. Ways to structure workplaces andjob tasks so as to minimize stresses to the back and improveproductivity are presented. Case studies and population profilesare drawn from ergonomic research performed at the ComprehensivePain and Rehabilitation Center at the University of Miami. Theauthors discuss the origins of low back pain, events that lead toinjury, and the consequences to employers. Back pain is correlatedwith specific occupational factors. Nearly 150 illustrationsfurther these discussions. Among the important preventive andtherapeutic measures explored are: * Bodymechanics education and muscle reeducation * Workplace design and biomechanics * Functional electrical stimulation, electromyography, andbiofeedback * Management of low back pain during rehabilitation andpost-rehabilitation stages Extensive epidemiological data show the devastating effects of lowback pain on the economy, industry, and healthcare delivery. Alsoexamined are the role of medical personnel in the evaluation andtreatment of back pain and the contributions that can be made by anergonomist who is part of a multidisciplinary healthcare deliveryteam. Ergonomics in Back Pain is intended for use by ergonomists,physicians, physical therapists, occupational therapists,vocational counselors, chiropractors, osteopaths, andrehabilitation medicine specialists, as well as by engineers,workplace designers, and people working on the implementation ofthe Americans with Disabilities Act.
