Ergonomic Risk Reduction Process - Background
The Ergonomic Risk Reduction Process (ERRP) was tested using the Albany, New York Processing and Distribution Center in March 2001 as a pilot site. The preliminary results from the Albany pilot showed the ergonomics risk reduction model could reduce musculoskeletal disorders and workers’ compensation costs when USPS labor, management and OSHA work as a “TEAM” to reduce and/or eliminate potential risk factors. The OSHA area director provided guidance and attended several of the Joint Labor Management Safety and Health committee meetings.Once the ERRP is initiated, the USPS embeds a full-time ergonomist at the site to train the site coordinator from kickoff through implementation (60 – 90 days). The ergonomist conveys ergonomic process knowledge to the Core Team or ERRP city/territory teams, as well as USPS and union leadership through training and hands-on job analysis. The agronomist performs evaluations for the verification of abilities necessary to continue the process, demonstrating the ERRP site's or district's capacity to be self-sustaining.
