I have taken one of their courses and find the assessment tools contained in their Applied Industrial Ergonomics manual to be well thought out and credible. I just wish I had more opportunity to use those tools to better assure the consistent application to which your article refers. At the same time, I do acknowledge having more frequently used the NIOSH lifting equation for assessments of ergonomic stress situations I have encountered. </p>hygienemanTue, 16 Dec 2008 16:01:50 -0000
