Based on the understanding that a worker is the expert on his or her job, participatory ergonomics programs seek to actively and directly engage workers in building or bettering ergonomics practices to enhance their safety and well-being. You will be guided through what makes Kaiser Permanente medical center’s participatory ergonomics program successful and provide strategies for improving consultation and ergonomics risk management that you can take back to your own organization.
