    Author: Childre F, Koehl B.
    Journal: AAOHN J; 2009 Dec; 57(12):488-90. PubMed ID: 20043620.
    Abstract:
    A significant portion of U.S. employees are office based and their work is sedentary. Office ergonomics is relevant to this population of employees to minimize the deleterious effects of static or sustained postures. Occupational health nurses currently conduct ergonomic assessments and provide interventions to decrease physical stressors. This article describes a straightforward process occupational health nurses can use to augment their ergonomic assessment and evaluation activities.
