Web-based ergonomic courses
EWI Works now offers web based ergonomic training for our clients. Web-based courses make the training stage of implementing your ergonomic program worry-free and cost effective. Employees complete the online training course conveniently—at their own workstation, at their own pace. The course is available for one year of unlimited use.
The advantages:
- the need to have a certified ergonomist teach the course at your site is no longer necessary, therefore there are no instructor fees or travel charges incurred for training staff
- the cost of lost production time is decreased as the need to remove large groups of staff from operational duties is eliminated
