About this session
Power Plant Floor & Operations is a 60-minute to three-hour ergonomics session for power-plant operators doing walking rounds, valve work and stairs across rotating shifts. It runs live online or in person.
Operators map stairs, rounds, vibration and heat across a shift, sequence rounds and valve work to reduce strain, and plan recovery around night shifts and outages.
It supports, and doesn't replace, your plant's operating procedures, isolation rules and required training. Ongoing pain or fatigue is worth discussing with occupational health or a doctor.
Operators leave with practical ways to reduce strain on rounds and recover better between shifts.
