Industrial ergonomics training
Our two-day course in industrial ergonomics provides the skills and tools to make simple and effective improvements in industrial environments.
Accredited by the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors, our training emphasises hands-on problem-solving methodologies to recognise, evaluate, and control ergonomics risk.
We train delegates in validated assessment methods and tools to assess repetitive tasks, manual handling, pushing/pulling and awkward postures. Our training is based on authoritative Health and Safety Executive guidance and our extensive experience of applying ergonomics principles in industry.
