We put years of experience in medical and disability management into action by assisting employers, carriers, and third-party administrators with remote ergonomics services. Our remote ergonomics services can be delivered telephonically utilizing digital pictures and/or video conferencing.
Genex ergonomics specialists follow the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health(NIOSH) definition of fitting the workplace conditions and job demands to the capabilities of the working population. This gives employers real world solutions that will provide immediate impact. Recommendations include engineering, administrative, and personal solutions.
During the assessment, the ergonomics specialist will provide education and training on proper posture, equipment adjustment, and work habits.
After the assessment, the ergonomics specialist will complete a report that details the risk factors, recommendations to reduce risk factors, and any equipment that may assist if needed.
Getting Started
Prior to the assessment, Genex will email an ergonomics request form to document the working environment and any discomfort the employee is experiencing, including instructions on providing pictures.
When Genex receives the completed request form, an ergonomics specialist will reach out to the employee within 48 hours to schedule a consultation. The remote/telephonic assessment averages 30-45 minutes.
Our services cover:
- Prevention
