Office Assessment: Video Example
Developed by: Center for Ergonomics at the University of Michigan
Description: A video that identifies hazards and suggests recommendations for a worker at a seated office workstation (a marketing director). The task involves computer use, phone use, and document filing. The video explains the equipment the worker uses, then identifies MSD risk factors associated with the job tasks, and lists potential recommendations to reduce the MSD risks. The video creators suggest the video can be used for training purposes to help users identify MSD risk factors in their workplace.
This is one of a series of “sample” videos from the Center for Ergonomics.
