The NYS & CSEA Statewide Safety and Health
Committee is pleased to announce the release
of the Ergonomic Product Guide.
This guide will help New York State employees,
agency managers, and CSEA leaders learn about:
The basics of ergonomics in
the work environment and how to reduce
work-related injuries.
How to address risk factors
through the selection and use of equipment
that may eliminate or minimize injury for
employees in food service, grounds
keeping/maintenance, laundry/housekeeping, and
mail and supply/shipping and receiving
positions.
Examples of ergonomic products
available that can help reduce the chances of
developing work-related injuries, such as
carpal tunnel syndrome, back injuries, and
tendonitis
The guide was prepared through
the collaboration of the New York State
Governor's Office of Employee Relations, CSEA
and the NYS & CSEA Partnership for Education
and Training.
