Ergonomics

This program summarizes the procedures implemented at San Diego State University to minimize and prevent Repetitive Motion Injuries (RMIs) as required by California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Section 5110.  Adherence to these procedures will reduce employees' risks of repetitive motion or other ergonomic related injuries. Program components include workstation evaluations, workplace training, and implementation of ergonomic control strategies.

Employees are encouraged to use the Self-Evaluation Checklists provided here.  Contact EH&S at [email protected] or x4-6778 for additional information or to schedule an Ergonomic Evaluation for your Workstation or Job Tasks.
