Mike Toepfer, Barbara Wright, and Stephen Judd, of the ITDE team, recently received training to provide ergonomic assessments of computer workstations. Patricia Gaudet, UNH Occupational Health & Safety Coordinator, conducted the training, which was held as a follow-up to a discussion at the last EMT meeting.

If you would like an ergonomics assessment of your computer workstation, please email Stephen (stephen.judd@unh.edu) so we can schedule a time. To facilitate the process, it would be helpful if staff at particular locations could all be scheduled for the same time frame.
