Injury Prevention

• Pre-Employment Testing – Pre-employment tests include those designed by eh employer, or Cybex testing, which is specifically designed to determine an individual's physiological strength and range of motion. This assists the employer with job placement in work areas with high injury rates.

• Physical Abilities Testing (Post-Offer Testing) – A job specific test based on data collected on site. This test is created by Advanced Ergonomics Inc. and provides data that will allow the employer to make a pass/fail decision on an applicant's ability to perform the physical demands of a job. Data collection and actual testing are performed by ATS. PATs are legally defensible and can be used to make a pass/fail employment or return to work decision.

• On-Site Ergonomic Assessment – Ergonomic assessments are performed to analyze and improve the fit between worker and workstation, instruction in safe work techniques and evaluation of tools, equipment and adaptive services. These assessments assist the employer in identifying high-risk aspects of a job and troubleshooting solutions to reduce these risks.

• Job Task Analysis – This test is used to determine essential and non-essential job functions. This assessment is performed on site and quantifies the physical demands of the specific job and is therefore used to determine the critical demands of that job. This analysis assists the employer in writing accurate job descriptions that describes the physical demands of the job.
