Do you hear the word “ergonomics” and shudder in sticker shock!? There are a lot of myths floating around telling your employees that “sitting is the new smoking” and “back pain is because of your chair” when the reality is very different.

• Understand the difference between ergonomic programming that works and equipment that does not.
• Recognize the fine line between ergonomic equipment and disability accommodation, and what documents and policies you need to have in place before conflicts arise between the two.
• Differentiate between the different types of equipment on the market and their proper uses.
• Discuss your responsibility when a doctor's note is received for ergonomic equipment.
• Define ROI metrics for your office ergonomic program.
