Job-Site Analysis (JSA) and Functional Job Descriptions (FJD)
|
Good Ergonomics=Good Economics. A Job Site Analysis can decrease work-related injuries,
maximize existing resources, and increase employee morale.
Adopting a proactive ergonomics policy begins with assessing the workplace for ergonomic
risk. A Job-Site Analysis (JSA) is the tool utilized by the Certified Early Intervention
Specialist to identify high risk movements, postures and tasks. Tools used may include
(but are not limited to) ASC-Z365, RULA, NIOSH Lift Equation, REBA, etc. depending
on the job-type and essential functions of the job.
The JSA will include classification of the risk and makes recommendations for corrective
actions. All recommendations will be scored to assist the management team in developing
an implementation plan.
A Functional Job Description (FJD) from ATI Worksite Solutions expands on the basic
information found in a typical job description to account for the specific and essential
physical tasks of a job. Using research and interviews with staff as well as detailed
observation of the job, our consultant creates a detailed job description that includes
weights, forces, movements and postures; all classified by the DOL recommended frequencies
and durations.
The completed FJD is the keystone tool for:
- Developing post-offer tests
- Managing temporary and permanent restrictions
- Evaluating the accommodation portion of ADA claims
|
|
Post-offer Testing:
|
Post-offer evaluations screen potential new hires to ensure they meet the physical
requirements necessary to perform the critical and essential functions of the job.
Working with the employer, our consultants develop a job-specific physical simulation
to evaluate flexibility, strength, functional mobility/agility, posture, body mechanics
with lifting and work performance, and blood pressure.
- Tests are developed with close attention to case law, jurisdictional requirements
and ADA/EEOC recommendations.
- Test outcomes available immediately after test conclusion.
- Typical failure rate is 15-18%, up to 35% when performed during periods of high
unemployment
- Testing yields a 10 to 1 ROI!

Office Ergonomics |
ATI Worksite Solutions offers a unique software program that allows employers to
FINALLY give attention to one of the industries’ leading contributors to workplace
injuries – the OFFICE WORKER.
Most office injuries are caused by the physical stress and strain of sitting in
the same position for a long time, making repetitive movements, and overuse. Utilizing
our proprietary software program OfficeTrac™, our Certified Early Intervention Specialist
can efficiently and cost effectively screen a large group of employees to identify
those at high risk.
Our consultant will educate employees regarding proper workstation setup and/or
recommend necessary equipment changes. The OfficeTrac™ tool facilitates the assessment
and triggers a follow-up survey to establish ROI.

Return to Work and Functional Capacity Evaluations
|
When an employee has been away from their job for an extended time, due to an injury
or any other reason, ensuring a safe return to duty reduces the risk of injury and
the likelihood of even more time away from work.
A functional capacity evaluation (FCE) is a scientifically developed process that
measures a worker’s physical capabilities and tolerances. The comprehensive, job-specific
assessment examines the employee’s ability to perform all essential functions of
the job and determines whether they are ready to return at full capacity, or may
need a transitional duty program.
- Results called and faxed to designated nurse case managers, risk managers and treating
physician.
- Can detect sub-maximal efforts by employees with alternative motives to returning
to work
- Results reported as VALID, Conditionally VALID, or INVALID.
