| Course Description: Recorded at AIHce EXP 2022 Presentations Semiconductor Computer Workstation Ergonomic Assessments With Occupational Exposure Banding How do you perform ergonomics assessments of sixty semiconductor manufacturing computer workstations while still prioritizing bigger impact assessments of new manufacturing equipment? The answer is to borrow a technique used by pharmaceutical IHs, occupational exposure banding. Treating similar computer workstations as one group significantly reduced necessary analyses while permitting meaningful risk assessments and creation of recommendations prioritized by risk level. This study will share the lessons learned while developing guidance on assessing the ergonomic risk of other manufacturing computer workstations. Going forward nonergonomists can assess and recommend controls for similar computer workstations. The Interaction of CO2 Exposure, Workload, and Biomechanical Stresses on Heartrate for Select Tasks in a Craft Brewery As the craft brewing industry has expanded in number and production volume, injuries, and illnesses in the workplace have increased. The two most common reported injuries were 1) strains and sprains and 2) exposures to carbon dioxide. In the craft brewery environment, a) aggregate or combined risk to the workload, b) musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risk, and c) CO2 exposures are measured to develop controls to reduce these injury types. Three brewery tasks were identified based on their risks for CO2 exposure, MSD risk, and workload. Heart rate was utilized as an indicator of increasing physical exertion and CO2 exposures.
