Your vehicle is a workstation. Make sure it fits the driver.
On-site ergonomic assessments for fleet teams and mobile workers — conducted in the employee's actual work vehicle, not a simulation. Fewer injuries, fewer claims, more comfortable drivers.
20+ hours a week behind the wheel changes the risk profile entirely.
Spending extended hours in a vehicle creates cumulative physical strain that, left unaddressed, becomes lost-time claims and long-term musculoskeletal conditions.
Weekly time behind the wheel at which injury risk rises sharply for mobile workers — before symptoms are ever reported.
