WHY HELP BRUTE?
Over the years Brute was a big asset in many manufacturing facilities the person that was called when something heavy, awkward, or just hard work that needed to be done. Always proud of being the go to person that the company needed for transferring heavy loads doing things others couldn’t. Little did Brute realize that after years of doing this it took a toll on body and mind. Eventually as much as Brute wanted to perform the tasks for his employer Brute just couldn’t. With fatigue, sore back, and hands that didn’t move like they used to it just got worse. Eventually Brutes’ employer found OMTEC and smartly replaced the work flow with efficient, and safe Omtec ergonomic products.
Over time the employer, workers and brute started to notice that the cost of manufacturing decreased and was safer due to product moving in a smart, orderly and fluid movement, all employees were happy and doubled productivity with ergonomics.
What is ergonomics you ask…
…an applied science concerned with designing and arranging people and work flow so that the human, parts and products interact in the most efficient, productive and safe manner.
— Also called biotechnology, human engineering, and human factors
Many industries have successfully implemented ergonomic solutions in their facilities as a way to address their workers’ MSD injury risks. These interventions have included modifying existing equipment, making changes in work practices and purchasing new tools or other devices to assist in the production process. Making these changes has reduced physical demands, eliminated unnecessary movements, lowered injury rates and their associated workers’ compensation costs, and reduced employee turnover. In many cases, work efficiency and productivity have increased as well. Simple, low-cost solutions are often available to solve problems.
