Employee Injury Prevention Program (EIPP) For The Employer

Teaching workplaces how to eliminate risks for musculoskeletal disorders.

How the EIPP works:

We start with an onsite visit to generate a comprehensive NEEDS ANALYSIS. Next, we train the management/supervisors AND the work force on SPECIFIC and CUSTOMIZED strategies for minimizing problems such as tendinitis, rotator cuff, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel, low back pain, and more… reducing ‘ergonomics’ injuries and their costs.

EIPP Components:

    Workstation Assessment
    Task Analysis
    Review of OSHA logs for injury trends
    Equipment modification recommendations
    Worker Education & Training
    Injury Reduction Strategies
    Management Training

Our Workstation/Task Analysis Checklist includes:

    Identification of repetitive movements
    Identification of sustained/awkward postures
    Discussion of off-work activities
    Identification of modifiable environmental factors (temperature, vibration, lighting, standing surfaces)
    Assessment of body mechanics
    Equipment adjustability
    And more

Why our (EIPP) works better than a simple ergonomics program

Ergonomics (making the job or task fit the person) helps, but is not always possible, AND not all MSDs are caused by poor work design. Physical therapists are musculoskeletal experts, making these professionals the best for addressing and educating regarding sustained/awkward postures and body mechanics.

Here are some of the components of our EIPP:

    Postural variety implementation measures
    Micro stretching (work task-specific and brief to improve tissue blood supply)
    Work task variety/rotation
    Start of shift warmups/end of day stretching when needed
    Training management in work injury prevention best practices
a corporate team in class learning about physical therapy techniques

Here’s an example of job-specific microstretch:

    Palm up
    Stretch wrist and fingers down toward floor
    Hold 10 seconds
    Repeat every 1-2 hours
    Uses: food prep, barbering/hairstyling, keyboard use…
