BioFitt’s MSI prevention and ergonomics training for Executives is delivered through flexible learning formats, including:
- Online learning management systems (LMS),
- Instructor-led virtual training, and
- In-person workshops
We also design and deliver customized ergonomics and MSI prevention training solutions tailored to your organization’s operational goals, workforce needs, and workplace risk factors.
Ergonomics and MSI Awareness for Executives
Module 01
Module 01
Module 01
FITTER Essentials: A Smarter Approach to MSI Prevention in the Workplace
Gain an appreciation of the physical demand risk factors associated with the development of musculoskeletal injuries (MSIs). Learn how FITTER™, created and formalized by BioFitt Ergonomics, organizes these risk factors into an easy-to-remember mnemonic that provides a common language for identifying and assessing MSI risks, and for developing and implementing effective risk controls and solutions.
Module 02
Module 01
Module 01
From Reactive to Proactive Ergonomics: Building a Strategy that Works
Develop an appreciation of the differences between proactive and reactive approaches to ergonomics and their potential impact on costs, injury-related expenses, productivity, safety, and organizational performance through an exploration of the ‘Ergonomic Maturity Model’. Explore the Cost Influence Curve to understand how addressing ergonomic and design issues earlier in the engineering lifecycle can substantially reduce the cost of implementing effective solutions.
Module 03
Module 01
Module 03
Prevention through Design and Ergonomic Interventions: Showcasing What Works Well
Develop an appreciation of the hierarchy of controls and the varying effectiveness of the different levels of safety interventions. Gain a practical understanding of how ‘Prevention through Design’ can be applied to ergonomics to identify and address physical demand risk factors early in the design process. Explore how technologies such as 3D printing, digital human modelling, and virtual manufacturing, together with engineering controls, can help prevent injuries before new tools, equipment, and work processes are introduced into the workplace.
Module 04
Module 04
Module 03
Good Ergonomics is Good Economics: Making the Business Case for Prevention and Performance
Develop an appreciation of the direct and indirect costs associated with workplace injuries, including MSIs. Gain an understanding of key financial concepts and calculations used to evaluate ergonomic interventions, including return on investment, benefit-cost ratio, and payback period. Explore how effective ergonomic interventions can positively influence workers’ compensation costs, productivity, and injury-related performance metrics.
Module 05
Module 04
Module 05
Expert vs. Participatory Ergonomics: Lessons from the Field Through a Hybrid Approach
Too often, safety and ergonomics initiatives rely heavily on expert-driven approaches while overlooking the valuable knowledge and experience that already exist within an organization. Explore the potential limitations of relying solely on experts and learn how combining technical expertise with worker participation can strengthen ergonomics and MSI prevention efforts through a real-world manufacturing case study.
