ASTD-Lincoln and ASTD Nebraska hosted a Regional Conference on May 18th - Human Performance Improvement: Doing More With Less. Desktop Ergonomics sponsored the afternoon break... and just like in the office environment, you should take a "micro-break" away from your desk to stretch, refocus your eyes, and get out of a static posture.

One of our presenters, Andrea Nierenberg of The Nierenberg Group, wrote about our conference on her blog! Read it here.

Ergo Tip of the Month - January 2012

Be proactive with early symptoms

Pain and discomfort can develop from single episodes of over-exertion, i.e.: shoveling snow after a blizzard. Other times, problems develop slowly with symptoms increasing from mild to severe over the course of weeks, months, or even sometimes years. These musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) or “over-use” conditions can result in pain, numbness, tingling or loss of strength and are often associated with repetitive motion or awkward posture. When symptoms decrease over the weekend, but reappear when returning to work, the condition may be job-related. An ergonomic assessment of your workstation or work tasks is essential to reduce or eliminate factors that can contribute to an MSD.
