OSHA’s current approach to the ergonomics issue may not be applicable to all workplaces. In my opinion I do not think that there can be a blanket approach to the legislation of ergonomics as so many different industries have different dynamics that can make similar task have drastically different risks. The risk is the main objective but not all risks can be defined by the same approach. Minor changes in job steps can increase or decrease the overall risk to a worker. I do believe that there need to be guidelines for the protection of workers, but the organization should be tasked with the responsibility to show that they have mitigated the risk as low as reasonably possible. Like hazard communication standard there are must haves for the base line but as the risk increases so should the controls and this should be managed on a case-by-case basis but with industries sharing best practices so all employers can obtain the information and take the best practices that can be applied to them and use them. Each program must be specific to the business or organization. This program should have contingency plans for those who are not the average workers and all health factors be considered as each body has different abilities. The employer should be held accountable to accommodate but only as far as the risk factors determine necessary. The employer can also create the guidelines and best practices, but it is up to the workers to use them. As Sydney Dekker communication in the topic of Human Performance the culture environment must empower the workers to make the decision to use the tools and utilize education to make the positive choice. This can often be found by providing positive feedback to workers to create the positive culture. I do not think that compliance makes people safe as these are primarily checklists and verification so creating new legislation may not make the impact that a positive safety culture would.
