Ann Arbor, MICH - Humantech, Inc., today announced the release of ergoTool 5, a major new version of its Web-enabled management tool for office ergonomics. ergoTool 5 will allow companies to quickly identify and address ergonomic concerns and implement effective solutions to improve health, safety, and productivity in the office workplace.
"ergoTool 5 empowers and enables organizations to take control of their office workplace by providing a proven mechanism to proactively find poor ergonomic conditions then change or adjust workstations to resolve them" said Walt Rostykus, vice president. He added "ergoTool 5 provides real-time measures and information about the condition of office workplace ergonomics across the enterprise."
ergoTool 5 is a comprehensive, two-part program. The first part is an on-line Employee Survey that examines the most critical ergonomic components of the office environment and captures quantifiable employee data. The second part, ergoTool Manager, is a management database that provides detailed reports and employee-specific solutions to your office ergonomics challenges. Data can be sorted to help you prioritize improvements, and an action plan helps ensure your solutions are cost-effective and easy to implement.
New features of ergoTool 5 include improved navigation and graphics, a simplified setup process, and an enhanced email alert system. In addition, ergoTool administrators can add and define permissions for users, sites, departments, and groups, as well as customize the ergoTool employee survey to meet their needs. More information about the software including a free trial survey is available at www.ergotool.com.
