A physical demand analysis performed by HCE staff goes well beyond just measuring how much something weighs. It is much more important to understand the “reactive” forces acting on the worker, the energy requirements of the work and the work-to-rest cycle that the job requires. With all this information, we can work to improve employee safety, hire the right employees for each work area and keep these employees safe over the extent of their careers. If you elect to become a member in our Small Group Program, you will learn how to perform your own physical demand analysis that will result in the correct level of detail.
