Learn Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) best practices with this online ergonomics training course.
Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) Course
Overview
This tool uses a systematic process to evaluate whole body postural MSD and ergonomic design risks associated with job tasks. A single page form is used to evaluate required body posture, forceful exertions, type of movement or action, repetition, and coupling. A score is assigned for each of the following body regions: wrists, forearms, elbows, shoulders, neck, trunk, back, legs and knees. After the data for each region is collected and scored, tables on the form are then used to compile the risk factor variables, generating a single score that represents the level of MSD risk.
Attend this online ergonomics training course to learn exactly how to perform ergonomic assessments using the REBA assessment tool.
