"Add my name to the list of people who think this book is a good 'foundation resource' on which to initiate and grow an ergonomics program..for 270 pages, it's actually a very quick and comprehensible read, loaded with useful drawings and charts, all of which is also included in the kit's ready-to-print/use checklists and training materials it gives good advice on how to get started, and it leaves plenty of room to establish an application approach that is right for your operation." -Wesley J.
