Summary

Many safety managers know ergonomics-related risks are a major driver of injuries, lost time, and rising costs, but struggle to explain its true impact in a way leadership understands. While some might view ergonomics management as an operational or safety “sidecar” or “nice-to-have,” it is a non-negotiable business imperative, given its impact on risk, cost, productivity and workplace sustainability. However, without a clear business case, ergonomics programs often remain underfunded, reactive, or sidelined in favor of more visible safety priorities.

In this live webchat, Blake McGowan, Senior Global Enterprise Account Executive and Senior Principal Ergonomics Technical Fellow at VelocityEHS, will explore how safety and health leaders can reframe ergonomics as both a business risk and an opportunity that executives understand.

This discussion will expand your understanding on:

• Translating musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risk into language designed for leadership.
• Uncovering both known and hidden ergonomics-related risks that can impact your workforce.
• Connecting ergonomics efforts to business outcomes such as productivity, quality, absenteeism, and turnover.
• Leveraging technology to improve and scale your ergonomics efforts.
