–Musculoskeletal Injury Prevention Program (MIPP): ergonomics services

The University's Workers' Compensation and Disabilities Services Office has resumed the valuable ergonomics services of the Musculoskeletal Injury Prevention Program (MIPP). As a part of its ongoing commitment to the reduction of work related injuries. Benefits Services has contracted with the firm, Empowerment by Design, to coordinate the MIPP. If you are in need of an on-site ergonomic work assessment, please visit www.ebd-ot.com and click "Create an Account" in the Client Access Box. Once you complete the case profile and survey, your request will be processed in the order it was received. You should expect a three to four week waiting period. In the meantime, you can find some useful information by visiting Cornell's local ergonomics web site at: http://ergo.human.cornell.edu/ergoguide.html
