The
first step is to consider the type of OHS assistance
your company requires. If your company is unsure
if work place related pain and fatigue is impacting
on productivity we can provide a survey (Japanese and English) which will provide an objective
measure of the problem in your company. Many
companies do not realize the extent of their
ergonomic problem until the survey is conducted.
The survey can be repeated 2-6 months after our
services to provide a measure of the effectiveness
of our intervention strategies.
We can assist companies by providing a large range
of services. The most popular options are one hour
presentations to staff on anatomy, safe computer
use and general workstation advice followed by
individual ergonomic consultations for staff experiencing
problems. For companies interested in providing
excellence in safety we can provide full company
OHS audits and evaluation reports, ergonomic web
page construction and video on demand (VOD) training.
Feel free to call one of our helpful Ergonomic
consultants to explain how we can help you.
Optim Ergonomics can assess Occupational Health & Safety
(OHS) risk factors within your company based on
the type of work carried out in the workplace.
We can produce an official report on the ergonomic
situation in your company, outlined all areas which
can be improved and commending current ergonomic
efforts.
Benchmark audits can be conducted in consultation
with your firm's OHS managers. OHS audits are designed
to identify OHS policy inadequacies such as injury
reporting, injury management, return to work procedures,
consultation arrangements and risk management procedures.
These areas have been targeted in current legislative
reforms in Japan, with a focus on injury prevention
and it is Optim Ergonomics' role to assist in identifying,
assessing and providing solutions to control workplace
hazards and risks. This audit report can be an
important document in providing evidence of your
company’s commitment to ergonomics should
litigation arise.
Our OHS advisory tools and information can help
your company implement effective risk management
measures now and for future years and meet your
legal obligations to your staff.
