The "Industrial Ergonomics" Interactive CD-ROM Training Course focuses on potential ergonomic problems in manufacturing, assembly and warehousing situations. The Course shows employees how to recognize ergonomic problems, the potential adverse effects "bad ergonomics" can have, and practical solutions employees themselves can use to help deal with ergonomic problems.

Every job makes a different set of demands on the body. How this impacts employees, and what can be done to reduce or eliminate adverse effects, is an important safety issue. While there is a lot of debate about the many aspects of ergonomics, everyone agrees on one thing... that by using proper ergonomic techniques employees will be safer and more productive, as well as feel better at the end of the day. Areas covered in the Course include physiology of the body, parts of the body most effected, eyestrain, pragmatic preventative measures, correct use of equipment, exercises and stress release, and more. Using a powerful combination of audio, full-motion video, text and colorful graphics, this Course provides the most cost-effective Safety and Regulatory Compliance training available today.

The Course features both Video for Windows and MPEG compatibility, platform software which installs automatically and comprehensive User's and Trainer's Guides. The Course is divided into a number of logical sections so information is easily understood... and retained. Also designed with the Training Manager in mind, all Courses in The Interactive CD-ROM Training Library include a Training Management System (at no additional cost). Using this System, trainers can set up "Pre" and "Post" tests... establish log-in procedures... even define and set up curriculum for various job classes. The System also collects and organizes employee performance information through a powerful relational database, which can generate a number of record-keeping and tracking reports... and has a database "import/export" feature, which allows information to be transferred to and from an external database (such as a company's Personnel Database). The Course is one of over 60 titles currently available in The Interactive CD-ROM Training Library. Other Interactive Courses on Safety and Regulatory Compliance topics are currently being developed and will be available soon.
