Product Description

Dwayne Van Eerd from the IWH will present the results of a recently completed systematic review entitled 'Participatory Ergonomic Interventions: Process and Implementation.' This review examines how PE interventions are conducted (process and implementation). The findings include details about important implementation issues as well as the facilitators and barriers that are reported in the literature. A previous review found some evidence for effectiveness of PE intervention while this adds important information about how to conduct PE interventions.
