SUMMARY:International Conference on Mental Health in the Workplace
DESCRIPTION:Mental Health in the workplace is key to every organization’s overall productivity and the wellbeing of its employees. \ndelegates from different countries will learn from their Canadian counterparts on how to deal with Mental Health challenges at the workplace. \nWe will be hosting Human Resource Managers and organisation directors\, CEOs and company executives from different fields of expertise. Delegates will attend workshops hosted by Canadian experts on Mental Health after which they will attend networking sessions and a closing dinner. The Canadian Mental Health Policy Framework has been built over 100 years. This will be an opportunity for delegates to compare notes and shorten the learning curve. \nUpon their return home\, delegates will aid all activities that will make this conference’s objectives a reality by improving the Mental Health conditions at their respective workplaces. \n

SUMMARY:RSI Day Webinar Series Week 2
DESCRIPTION:WEEK 2\nThursday February 15\n10:00 am – 12:30 pm EST \nClinical Lessons on Key Musculoskeletal Disorders\nPart 1: Plantar Fasciitis\nPlantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of foot pain affecting approximately 2 million people a year. This session examines the anatomy\, causes\, symptoms\, diagnosis and prevention of this disorder at work. \nSPEAKERS:\nPravesh Jugnundan\, Physician – OHCOW Toronto\nTrevor Schell\, Ergonomist – OHCOW – Sudbury \nPart 2: Improved and Systematic Physical Demand Analysis in the Workplace\nWorker safety and productivity are crucial elements in the workplace. The application of ergonomics and the identification of connections between workers and assigned tasks have contributed to a reduction in worker injuries and discomfort\, yielding positive effects on productivity\, and lowering costs. It is not uncommon to observe workers in the workplace exposed to awkward body postures\, repetitive motions and forceful exertion that lead to musculoskeletal disorders\, resulting in operational delays. \nPhysical Demand Analysis (PDA) is a widely recommended tool for documenting the physical\, cognitive\, and environmental demands of essential and non-essential tasks. However\, limitations exist in using the content generated in current PDA practices for risk identification and assessment\, with limited functionality in providing modified work to proactively mitigate risk. \nThree aspects of PDA implementations are discussed — risk identification\, evaluation\, and mitigation —aiming at the development of modified work within the return-to-work program. Ultimately\, this research can contribute to the design of job tasks and work environments with the overarching goal of promoting health\, safety\, and productivity in the workplace. \nSPEAKER:\nXinming Li (Sherry Li) – Assistant Professor\, Department of Mechanical Engineering\, University of Alberta \nPart 3: Epicondylitis\nEpicondylitis is a musculoskeletal disorder affecting the elbow with an overall prevalence in the general population reported to be between 4% and 7%.  This disorder is more commonly referred to as golfer’s elbow (medial aspect of elbow) or tennis elbow (lateral aspect of elbow).  This session examines the anatomy\, causes\, symptoms\, diagnosis and prevention of this disorder at work. \nSPEAKERS:\nDaryl Stephenson\, Ergonomist – OHCOW – Hamilton\nMichael Pysklywec\, Physician\, OHCOW – Hamilton \nREGISTER FOR FEB 15 SESSION
