Is worker discomfort, rising absence rates or quality issues impacting your production line? The root cause might be hiding in plain sight.
We’re pleased to host Julie Rainey MSc C.ErgHF MCIEHF MIHFES, Chartered Ergonomist & Human Factors Specialist and Director of Ergo & Wellbeing, for a practical webinar on production line Ergonomics.
Julie brings extensive manufacturing experience from Aston Martin (Human Factors Ergonomist) and Airbus UK (Ergonomics Specialist).
She’ll cover:
- β Why “one size fits all” workstations fit nobody properly
- β The hidden danger of “it’s only 2kg” (spoiler: multiply that by 400 lifts per shift)
- β How poor layout wastes energy and creates strain
- β Why generic training doesn’t transfer to real tasks
- β The true cost of waiting for injury before taking action
More importantly, Julie will share practical fixes including quick wins you can implement immediately and how modern assessment technology is changing what’s possible for comprehensive risk identification.
The context:
543,000 UK workers suffer from work-related MSDs annually, costing employers Β£21.6 billion and resulting in 33.7 million working days lost every year.
This session is relevant for:
- β Production Managers
- β Operations Directors
- β Health & Safety Professionals
- β Engineering Managers
- β Continuous Improvement Leads
Whether you’re in food production, engineering, manufacturing, advanced manufacturing, pharmaceuticals or aerospace, if you’re experiencing worker discomfort complaints, efficiency issues, quality issues, absence rates or productivity challenges, this webinar will provide actionable insights.
