Ergonomics Regulations

A ticking time bomb

Ergonomics Injuries develop over a long period of time and are often irreversible. This means that your entire workforce could be at risk, without you even knowing it. By the time the injury or disorder manifests itself, it's too late - you could be facing a crippling class action lawsuit. Simple compliance with Ergonomics Regulations will prevent that!

ERR Section 6(1)(a) states that:

An employer must, before the commencement of any work that may expose employees to ergonomic risks, have an ergonomic risk assessment performed by a competent person.
