[Webinar] Understanding OSHA’s Approach to Ergonomics

Join Rachel L. Conn, Daniel Deacon, and Anthony M. Casaletta on Thursday, June 18, at 2 pm ET / 11 am PT, for a webinar titled “Understanding OSHA’s Approach to Ergonomics.”

While OSHA lacks a specific ergonomics standard, it enforces workplace safety under the General Duty Clause (Section 5(a)(1) of the OSH Act), requiring employers to maintain workplaces free from recognized serious hazards, including musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risks. OSHA also uses National Emphasis Programs (NEPs)—such as the Warehousing & Distribution NEP—to target high-risk industries, incorporate ergonomics into inspections, and issue citations or hazard alerts when hazards are identified.

In this webinar, CMC attorneys will walk you through the most common ergonomic risks—repetitive motion, awkward lifting, twisting, bending, and heavy material handling—and share insights from real-world investigations. You’ll learn how to identify potential hazards, navigate OSHA ergonomics inspections, and implement strategies to manage compliance while minimizing legal exposure.
