Step by step we develop better tools
We are developing our ergonomic tools based on scientific
studies not made internally by us, but are the result
of experiences gathered from users, ergo therapists, physiotherapists,
physicians, designers and thorough tests. The system was
presented and approved at PREMUS 96, a scientific conference
concerning the prevention of industrial strain injuries.
The system provides a detailed description - point
by point - of the demands we make before it is ready
for launch, bearing our registered ergo symbol.
Did you know that:
- 47% of all work related health problems are due
to strain injuries - and that the figure is constantly
increasing?
- 60% of all industrial accidents are caused by hand
tools?
- 35-40% of all absence from work is due to strain
injuries?
- 30% of all disability diagnoses involve muscle,
bone and connective tissue diseases?
These are the official statistics, not to mention the
pain and discomfort the victims suffer.
