That's a tough one, Figuring out the risky back tasks is huge, but also the re-programming of employees through haptic response is another huge benefit!

I thought I knew more about Ergo than the average EHS person, but I am wrong again, evidently! What is "Haptic"?
I don't use Modjoul, but I used Humantech's "Best In-Brief" System for ten years and played around with another company's software Ergo Factor. I have also used the NIOSH Lifting Equations many many times. Not knowing what "Haptic" means the one that sounds the most intriguing to me is, "Calculating twisting Activity" as I know many injuries especially to the lumbar back, are from twisting while lifting, one of the worst actions a human can do to their bodies! God made us to do things in certain ways, and when we don't bad things happen! Twisting your back while the back is under strain is one of the things God did not make us to do that! Each time a human does it's like a throw of the dice, if it comes up "snake eyes" you are going to have pain like you have never felt before, likely for the rest of your life! If you do not believe me, just ask someone with chronic back problems. You will not have to ask very many people to find someone!

So what you got that the NIOSH Lifting Equation does not?

we love data reports :)

What is Modjoul and what company does he work for? :-) This post went about 10,000' well over my head!
