Group
The Ergonomic Interest Group explores the latest ergonomic products available in Australia
and the solutions they may provide.
The group is comprised of some 3,500 members from a variety of multi disciplinary health science
backgrounds and organisations with an interest.
The purpose of the EIG is to develop ways to advance the implementation of sound ergonomic practise into everyday use,
in both commercial work and home based environments, to exceed the current standards.
To achieve this, the EIG combines the research of best practise and cutting edge technology with qualified health
professionals assessments to ensure the most effective solutions to
the ever varying ergonomic problems.
Our Committee members come from a wide range of ergonomic backgrounds ensuring we provide a balanced approach to the
sourcing and sharing of ergonomic information.
Members are sent a monthly newsletter via email, informing them of the latest technologies and trends in the world of
ergonomics and are notified of ergonomic events
The EIG are committed to raising awareness of accurate information relating to ergonomics and its application
to benefit both individuals and organisations.
In 2009 with the rollout of the National Secondary School Computer Fund we are compiling
a Laptop Ergonomic Awareness Program (LEAP).
This is a national campaign to help educate Parents and Teachers about the potential dangers of laptop use in
adolescents.
If you wish to be involved with LEAP please contact me.
