IS6 | Prevention Through Design: Successes and Challenges (Room Champagne 3-4)

Prevention through Design (PtD) integrates safety and ergonomics in the planning and design of facilities and work processes, resulting in reduced injuries and increased costs savings. PtD can be applied to any planned change in operations, whether large or small. Mr. Norton will present a roadmap for success in using PtD by explaining how to engage the right stakeholders, establish an effective process for design, and get results with safe, more productive facilities, workstations and equipment. You will learn from case studies how to reduce MSDs and falls in hospitality, service and industrial applications.
