Ergonomic Assessments
Maximize productivity and reduce the risk of pain or injury to your team.
An ergonomic assessment is an evaluation of a workspace to maximize productivity and reduce the risk of pain or injury by adapting the work environment to meet the physical needs of the worker.
DMC’s workstation reviews are completed by either a Physiotherapist or Kinesiologist who will assess the workspace to gather information regarding job demands, job design, the physical environment and the organization of job tasks. A report will be provided following the assessment with recommendations to remove any potential hazards.
Industrial Hygiene
Through the identification of possible or existing occupational health hazards, our team is able to reduce worker exposure.
Environmental factors in the workplace can lead to injury or illness. Industrial Hygiene includes the use of environmental monitoring and data analysis to determine worker exposure to occupational hazards, which may include chemical, physical, ergonomic, or biological exposures.
Our Industrial Hygienists will recommend controls based on the testing results to reduce worker exposure to such hazards. Engineering controls are used to eliminate or isolate the hazard, work practice controls alter the manner in which a task is performed to mitigate risk, administrative controls such as adjustments to the scheduling of tasks may be used to reduce worker exposure, and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) may be used in conjunction with other controls or when they are not feasible.
Occupational Health Clinics
Our in-house clinics offer a wide range of services provided by trained and accredited professionals, to conduct a series of tests and assessments. These individuals come from a variety of disciplines and include safety professionals, an occupational physician, an occupational health nurse, an occupational hygienist, and DOT certified drug and alcohol testers.

Job Site Analysis
A job site analysis (JSA) is an on-site evaluation used to determine the essential tasks of a position as well as the physical and/or cognitive demands required to perform each job task. A JSA is an important tool used in rehabilitation and return to work planning. The JSA can be used to determine if the employee is safe to return to work and can also be used to identify appropriate modified/transitional duties. JSAs can be conducted proactively before an injury occurs. This practice allows for timely access to job specific information in the case of an injury and assists in identifying available modified duties early on.
DMC's Job Site Analyses are performed by a Physiotherapist, Occupational Therapist or Kinesiologist and a detailed report is provided.
