Preventing Musculoskeletal Disorders: Sitting

(12 min.) Neutral posture means your head over your shoulders, your shoulders relaxed at your sides, elbows around 90 degrees, the back in its 3 natural curves, and your wrists pretty much in line with your forearms. If you are going to have to be in one position for a while, these postures minimize the demands on your body and allow you to work most efficiently.

Topics included in this safety video are: Position, Force, Repetition, set up for neutral or power positions, finding more than one way to do the same job, and stretching and changing positions.

Program comes with a CD-ROM of written materials, including test questions and answers. English title also includes PowerPoint presentation.
