Resource Materials 

The AIPH Ergonomics Program encourages you to see which Department of Defense policy documents pertain to ergonomics.  These recommended resource materials can help you develop an ergonomics program, develop enhanced survey techniques, and provide guidance on performing workstation assessments.  

Also available for your review are our line of educational posters which can be downloaded for free.  Also check back to this page regularly to see when our line of Fact Sheets will be available for download.
