Curriculum Created by Internationally Known, Board-Certified Professional Ergonomist, and Physical Therapist Mark Anderson

Duluth, Minnesota – November, 11, 2024 — WorkWell, the experts in preventing and treating sprains, strains, and back pain, today announced a new and expanded version of Ergonomics On-Demand 2025! an ergonomics training program focused on boosting workplace safety in office and manufacturing work environments. It was developed in partnership with ergonomics expert Mark Anderson, MA, PT, CPE. Ergonomics On-Demand 2025! provides comprehensive, self-paced training to help healthcare professionals integrate practical ergonomics applications into their practices. “The new training brings in my 35+ years of experience and makes the process come to life with stories and examples. It also includes an all-new module on implementing ergonomics,” said Mark Anderson, a board-certified ergonomist.

Implementing ergonomic processes in the workplace is critical to reducing musculoskeletal (MSK) injuries and helping improve worker performance and productivity. WorkWell’s Ergonomics On-Demand! program gives physical and occupational therapists, athletic trainers, and other healthcare professionals the tools they need to perform ergonomics analysis and generate reasonable and feasible ergonomic recommendations for intervention to minimize injury risks in both manufacturing and office environments.

“The value of the training comes from what you do with it. The spectrum of what you can do ranges from helping your patients in the clinic by being able to ask more informed questions and create different strategies for healing, to working at an employer site providing services. You can really create your own ergonomics journey.” said Kristen Cederlind, Director of Clinical Services. “With WorkWell’s Ergonomics On-Demand 2025! healthcare professionals can complete training at their own pace and convenience, right from their computer. Workplace ergonomics are an important component of WorkWell’s Managed Onsite PT program, which helps organizations provide a safe working environment by taking proactive measures to identify injury risks and treat work-related injuries.”
