Ergonomics Musculo-skeletal disorders such as back injuries, carpal
tunnel syndrome and tendonitis have become the most costly work-related problem for many employers. These disorders can require surgery and/or long-term rehabilitation, and sometimes they result in the permanent
loss of a trained employee. Oncore can identify the tasks and work practices most likely to lead to these disorders and provide recommended changes or equipment modifications to reduce musculo-skeletal
stresses. If you have an employee with a temporary or permanent disability or a job applicant with a disability, we can compare the physical requirements of your processes to the person's physical limitations. The
determination of reasonable accommodated and physical requirements of the job are important issues required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Oncore provides these services. Services include
- Musculo-Skeletal Injury Assessments
- Workstation Evaluations
- Process/Workstation Design/Redesign
- Computerized Modeling for Injury Prediction
- ADA evaluations
- Development of Essential Job Functions
- Ergonomic Training and Education
