INITIAL ERGONOMICS RISK ASSESSMENT (i-ERA)

  • The Initial Ergonomic Risk Assessment (ERA) is the first step in planning and implementing ergonomic risk assessments in the workplace.

  • Initial ERA uses relevant method in musculoskeletal assessment such as Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire, Dutch Musculoskeletal Questionaire, Cornell Musculoskeletal Questionaire. Etc.

  • Meanwhile, DOSH Initial ERA Checklist is used to identify specific ergonomics risk factors exists in the workplace.

  • Implementing an Initial Ergonomics Risk Assessment (ERA) can assist management in identifying any issues or problems that may be affecting worker health and productivity or that may pose a risk at work.

  • The results of this Initial ERA will determine the requirement of whether or not an Advanced ERA is required for detailed evaluation.

ADVANCED ERGONOMICS RISK ASSESSMENT (a-ERA)

  • Advanced Ergonomic Risk Assessment (ERA) is the second and final stage after the Initial ERA (if the results indicate that the Advanced ERA is required) for specific ergonomic risk factors (ERFs) discovered at the workplace.
  • The primary goal of the Advanced ERA is to identify specific ergonomic risk factors in the workplace utilising posture, forceful assessment, and repetition assessment methods such as Rapid Upper Limb Assessment, Rapid Entire Body Assessment, Rapid Office Strain Assessment, Manual Handling Assessment Chart, Work Movement Task Analysis etc.
  • The results of Advanced ERA will identify control measures which have been implemented and determine whether or not the controls are adequate. If necessary, additional recommendations should be made to improve existing control measures.
  • The upsides of conducting an Advanced (ERA) would provide an opportunity for employers to develop, implement, and monitor preventive measures, as well as reduce compensation costs, medical expenses, and employee absenteeism due to ergonomics-related injuries and MSDs.
