INDUSTRIAL WORKER

Strand 12A – 2nd oor

Kadon Kyte and Maureen Shea, The Boeing Company

Basic level

This preconference workshop will provide you with insights on the industrial

exoskeleton market. In addition, you will hear from Boeing representatives on

how the Boeing Company is researching and integrating various exoskeleton

systems throughout the Boeing Company. You will learn about current stan-

dards being developed; exoskeleton organizations; suppliers active within

the medical, industrial, and military space; key learnings from industry; and

ways in which you can get involved in exoskeletons.

ERGO 101: ERGONOMICS BASICS

Strand 12B – 2nd oor

Kimberly Monroe, KM Ergonomics, LLC; Madina Joshi, Raytheon Corporate

Ergonomics

Basic level

This workshop is intended to help the participant understand the fundamen-

tals of ergonomics, but more importantly to discover new ways to integrate

the concepts and principles of ergonomics into engineering design, process

improvement, and continuous improvement efforts. Whether you are brand

new to ergonomics or are simply in a new role as an ergonomics lead or team

member, you will want to attend this workshop to learn strategies for manag-

ing a comprehensive approach to problem identication and solution design

in industrial environments. The course covers a brief historical background of

ergonomics followed by an overview of risk identication, quantication, in-

tervention and control, and documentation. Many hands on experiences are

planned to demonstrate concepts covered during the course. This workshop is

well suited for individuals of all educational and professional backgrounds to

take home and implement right away.

A DEEP DIVE INTO OFFICE ERGONOMIC STANDARDS AND

GUIDELINES

Strand 13A – 2nd oor

Teresa A. Bellingar, Haworth, Inc.

Basic level

Beginning with an overview of North American ofce ergonomics standards

and guidelines (BIFMA, HFES, CSA and CGSB), get ready to roll up your sleeves

and learn about recent updates to these important documents and how they

compare to each other. Discuss the trends on obesity and how this is impact-

ing the standards and how it is affecting furniture design – specically seating.

Learn about potential seating dimensional recommendations that BIFMA may

propose for individuals between 300 and 400 pounds (136 to 181 kg) and

discuss the dimensional requirements for bariatric seating in FS 058:2017 (a

Europe based standard). Additionally, spend some time discussing ofce er-

gonomic standards from Europe and Asia/Pacic; such as where to purchase

them and a high-level overview of similarities/differences to North American

ofce ergonomic standards and guidelines (i.e., can a chair meet all global er-

gonomic standards?). Participate in case studies related to using standards to

purchase furniture. Come keen to learn, leave knowledge-rich and motivated

to get these standards and guidelines working for you.

APPLYING FATIGUE MODELING RESEARCH TO PRACTICE

Strand 3 – 2nd oor

Mike Sonne, My Abilities

Advanced level

Muscle fatigue modeling has been a well-researched topic in recent years, ex-

amining the close relationship that exists between a loss in muscle force and

injury. This presentation aims to cover the research in the eld and provide

ways that these fatigue models could be used in the workplace. You will learn

how research has been conducted to study muscle fatigue, what studies are

the most relevant for applying to the workplace, how to interpret the outputs

of popular muscle fatigue models and how you can use muscle fatigue mod-

els in your workplace to understand the impact of interventions.

All workshops require advanced registration.

program. Whether you are starting from scratch or wanting to improve your

existing program, we will help you create the program that ts your company

and its culture. Attendees will learn about the four key components necessary

for all programs and how to create each one. We will teach you how to start

ergo teams and how to keep them focused on getting results. We will also

review the various risk assessment tools and software in order to help you

decide which is a best t for your company’s needs. Training and education

will also be discussed and we will show you some tricks on how to spice up

your lessons so people enjoy and remember them. All experience levels are

welcome to attend and we guarantee whatever your role is in your company,

you will walk away with some fresh, new ways to make your program a nan-

cial success.

STRATEGIC APPROACH TO DEVELOPMENT OF ERGONOMICS

DESIGN STANDARDS ENABLING IMPLEMENTATION

Strand 13A – 2nd oor

Patty Racco, Ford, and Kelly Hogan, Sandalwood

Advanced level

Developing ergonomic standards for engineering is recognized as a successful

method to ensure consistency and drive ergonomic principles to those making

the decisions. The workshop will outline the need for standards, pros and cons of

the type of standards, gathering data to ensure robustness, the presentation of

data (written vs. visual), identifying the key stakeholders and how to ensure suc-

cess by working collaboratively. The workshop will share published examples de-

veloped by a collaborative cross-company team. Participants will walk through a

step-by-step approach on the selection, development and publication of a stan-

dard that will stand up to scrutiny, backed by ergonomic guidelines and assess-

ment tools. There will be an interactive / hands-on portion where participants

can ‘practice’ or ne-tune standard writing in small and large group discussion.

We encourage all participants to bring in a standard proposal, in any level of

development from concept to nal editing, to apply the concepts touched on in

the workshop and share with the larger group. An example will be taken through

the steps with the group that will demonstrate how ergonomic tools have been

applied, which ones were used and how they have been incorporated into stan-

dards. The objective is for the participants to successfully implement the ap-

proach and leave with ability to write standards for their workplace.

ERGONOMIC ASSESSMENTS FOR AN UPPER BODY EXOSKELETON

USING ELECTROMYOGRAPHY (EMG)

Strand 3 – 2nd oor

Jason C. Gillette, Iowa State University

Intermediate/ Advanced level

Upper body exoskeletons have the potential to be a practical intervention for

shoulder injury reduction, but testing is needed to document benets and

drawbacks of these assistive devices. The purpose of this workshop is to describe

EMG-based ergonomic assessments for a passive upper body exoskeleton used

by workers at manufacturing facilities. We have collected on-site data at John

Deere and Toyota, along with a lab-based study of common postures used on

assembly lines. During the on-site studies, wireless EMG sensors were used to

measure activation for muscles of the arm, shoulder, and lower back during job

tasks with and without an exoskeleton. EMG data were then compared to thresh-

old limit values (TLVs) as a predictor of upper body fatigue and potential injury

risk. We will discuss how we have interpreted our experimental data and how

the results may be used to make decisions about exoskeleton usage.

Full-Day Workshop, Monday, March 25, 8 a.m.-5 p.m.

ERGONOMICS CERTIFICATION REVIEW – DETERMINING WHAT

YOU DO AND DO NOT KNOW

Strand 2 – 2nd oor

Robert J. Smillie, Foundation for Professional Ergonomics

Basic/Intermediate

Participants will learn what certication means and what are the basic steps

to become certied. To become certied, participants will learn about the core

competencies and of what topics they will need to have some knowledge and

understanding. Overall reviews of key competency areas will be provided.

ERGO CUP® TEAMS

The internationally recognized Ergo Cup® competition, sponsored by the Ergonomics Center of North Carolina and Edward P. Fitts

Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at North Carolina State University and presented by IISE, provides an exciting opportunity

for companies to highlight their successful ergonomic solutions. The general theme across all Ergo Cup® categories is innovation.

The goal of this competition is to recognize and encourage the development of innovative ergonomics solutions and education in the

workplace. Any organization that can demonstrate an effective ergonomics solution or education initiative within the last 24 months

(October 2016 – 2018) is eligible to compete. The ergonomic solution preferably should have been implemented at least 1 (one) full year and

actual productivity, quality, and/or safety ROI results should be presented.

Five Ergo Cup® awards are presented annually for outstanding solutions through training, engineering and teamwork.

Check the conference app – Applied Ergonomics Conference 2019 – for more details on the ergonomics solutions

developed by these outstanding teams.

ERGO CUP® EXCELLENCE AWARD
