Humantech Announces 6th Annual Ergonomics Contest

Humantech is sponsoring its 6th annual Find It-Fix It Challenge, which recognizes simple and effective workplace solutions that reduce injuries and illnesses. According to Humantech President James Good, the challenge allows the firm to "recognize efforts and innovations across industry dedicated to creative job improvement." The contest was derived from the firm's RAPID Team Events, which are based on the concept of making quick and simple changes to improve workplace ergonomic issues. "The contest entries are an inspiration to business leaders looking for ways to leverage ergonomics to create more profitable and sustainable companies," Good says.

Open to all past and current Humantech clients, the contest will run from June 28 to Sept. 16, 2012. Organizations submit their best workplace improvements, highlighting the implementation of a creative and high-impact ergonomic solution. A webinar, available on the contest website, outlines the submission process and includes templates and step-by-step instructions.
