Educational Session | AI-Powered Ergonomics: Transforming Industrial Safety

Time: 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. EDT

Speakers: Rachel Zoky, CPE, Senior Strategic Consultant, VelocityEHS

Sponsored by: VelocityEHS

Global organizations struggle to effectively and sustainably manage musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risks due to the limitations of traditional, manual observation-based ergonomics assessments. These are often time-consuming, resource-intensive, difficult to scale, and potentially unreliable, which hinders proactive risk reduction and impacts overall worker safety and productivity.

This is where the power of AI and machine learning can be applied to the tools of a musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risk management system to offer a user-friendly and more reliable option. Using sensorless motion capture models to assess MSD risk factors from a video of a task enables efficient and highly accurate risk evaluation across diverse and complex job functions, eliminating the need for specialized equipment or extensive ergonomics expertise.
