United Airlines

"Since the Ergonomic training began in 1996, over 20,000 attendants have been trained. Back injuries decreased 63% from the program’s start to the first quarter of 1998.

United Airlines listened to the safety concerns of its employees and decided to do something about it.

Training was hands on, and we received positive feedback… We continue to approach injury prevention in innovative ways. You’ve got to do more than just put a poster up. You have to grab the employees’ attention to stress the importance of a good safety program."

The Boeing Company

"We are happy to report a 41% reduction in back injuries. We are obviously very pleased with these results.

The Backsafe® program has proven to be extremely practical and the employees enjoy the interaction of the stretching routine and the obstacle course, which is where we see the most positive changes occurring. The feedback from the employees is always positive.

We are very pleased with the results of Backsafe® and look forward to training many more people here at Boeing."

Mission Linen Case Study

"We have used the FIT program to train our delivery drivers in 15 locations so far," said Brock. "We have yet to experience a back injury where the training has been implemented. It's cut our absenteeism to nothing and our workers comp costs are going down."

Chrysler Corporation

"Business is about results, and the results have been impressive! Throughout the first quarter our facility lost 222 days due to job related injuries, in comparison to 49 days through the first quarter.

Furthermore, the management staff has gained an uncalculated amount of time, that in the past, was spent completing accident reports and conducting accident investigations.

However, and probably most importantly, the employee experienced managements commitment to implement changes recommended after the pre-assessment and subsequent job specific training. As one employee stated, "I do the stretches every morning and after 10 hours, I feel great".

County of Los Angeles - Office of the Assessors

"The F.I.T. concept of teaching biomechanics, posture, and stretching in the day-to-day environment of the employees makes so much sense. The participants loved the training, which helped show that management did care about them.

I am happy to report that we have not had a repetitive stress injury from the several hundred employees trained in over two years. "

"It (the implementation of the Backsafe® and Sittingsafe® Programs) was very well received by the employees and soon we began experiencing an awareness throughout the hospital.

The service and support of the staff and it’s founder, Dennis Downing, has been top notch, and I would highly recommend the program to anyone who is interested in reducing workers compensation claims."
