Current training appointments
The current range of education and training from the IGR Institut für Gesundheit und Ergonomie and the Mensch&Büro-Akademie.
In a tried and trusted form in terms of the knowledge transfer and at the same time always kept up to the latest level of work science.
These courses are aimed at companies and authorities that wish to impart valuable and practical knowledge for healthy behaviour at the workplace to all their employees.
Because the subject of demographics has been a factor in companies for some time: A shortage of young people and the aging of the workforce urgently demand systematic employee training. So that they remain healthy and are at the same time able to pass on their knowledge to others.
Multipliers and ambassadors for healthier working are trained who can detect ergonomic and/or stress-related problems at an early stage and taking preventative action.
The training concept has been developed by the IGR e.V. in collaboration with the Mensch&Büro-Akademie and comprises three formats that are aimed at differing target groups in companies and authorities. Within this, the areas of administration and production are covered separately.

Ergonomics Coach Production (IGR e.V. cert.)
What does ergonomics mean and what importance does ergonomics have in production workplaces?
You learn how to detect ergonomic problems at extremely varied production workplaces, how to make them clear and then of course to point out solutions; for example, possible changes to the workplace to avoid an unhealthy working position. Not only the necessary fundamentals of ergonomics are communicated during the training. The participants additionally gain knowledge of the legal conditions – for example, the meaning of risk assessment. In addition, you are presented with various assessment methods. Keywords in this context would be such as the OWAS method or the key indicator method. This all sounds very complex, but it is thoroughly suitable for daily life. However, these cases always deal with the workplace and its assessment and not with the actual workers and their workload. The participants are taught the necessary practical insight for this in a practical manner.
The training is a cooperation between the Mensch&Büro-Akademie and the IGR Institut für Gesundheit und Ergonomie. The content of the training is subject to inspection by the IGR e.V. Nuremberg and the test is also certified by the IGR e.V..
