After a review of DAS injury and wellness data in 1999, an ergonomic policy (pdf) was written and implemented in 2001. The goal of this policy is to reduce or eliminate ergonomic related work area problems and injuries. The program designates an ergonomic coordinator in each division and provides training for all DAS staff through these coordinators and the Safety office. The DAS Safety Officer will act as the agency ergonomic coordinator.
Each division has a minimum of one employee that is trained to perform ergonomic assessments and can be contacted directly for an assessment of new or existing employees.
