Ergonomics

Ergonomics can be defined as the study of designing and adjusting the workplace to the worker in order to improve efficiency and most importantly safety. The County provides a variety of safety resources to our employees to help keep you safe at work. This includes the County's Proactive Ergonomic Program, which is designed to reduce repetitive strain injuries (RSI) through education and ergonomic evaluations.​​​
