Laboratory's can be unfriendly areas when it comes to ergonomics and can provide many opportunities for ergonomic stressors to manifest into injuries or repetitive stress disorders. Major ergonomic issues in the laboratory setting includes static and/or awkward postures and repetitive motions. LBNL Ergonomics Program aims to address ergonomics risks in the laboratories. Please contact ergo@lbl.gov for assistance in examining your laboratory.
If it’s been awhile since you performed a task, take time to review the process with your supervisor, and pay attention to your ergonomic needs.
