Atlas Ergonomics to Present at NeoCon on "Missing Link" in Furniture Investments

Grand Haven, MI, June 06, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Every June, the office furniture industry gathers at NeoCon to reveal its most anticipated new ergonomic designs. But each of those new designs comes to market missing one vital component: user knowledge.

On June 11, Atlas Ergonomics founder Drew Bossen will present, "Ergonomics and the Essence of Knowledge" at NeoCon 2007. This presentation will cover Atlas research that shows a quantifiable relationship between employee knowledge of products and the long-term impact on worker health and safety.

“Regardless of how advanced an office ergonomic product is, if the employee is unaware of product features and how to use them effectively, then the investment is lost,” Bossen said.

Bossen is a licensed physical therapist with an MBA, who has helped large companies reduce injury-related costs by as much as 86%. The research behind this presentation has been summarized in a recent Atlas white paper titled, “Product Knowledge and the Effect on Reducing Office Employee Discomfort,” available upon request at www.atlasergo.com.
