How is an evaluation handled and what is involved?
Supervisors are contacted for all on-site evaluations. The onsite evaluation consists of ergonomic overview training, a review of current ergonomic tools a furniture available, a brief review of the individual’s job, employee input (health complaints, work station improvement), and EHS recommendations. The Office Ergonomic Questionnaire must be completed before conducting the individual on-site evaluation. Fill this out and return to EHS as soon as possible. After an on-site evaluation has been held, a draft of the evaluation and the recommendations will be sent to the supervisor. Once these are approved by the supervisor the evaluation and recommendations will be finalized and sent to the supervisor and the individual for action.
