Welcome

Problems that you or your employees may be having:

  • Pain, discomfort or other difficulties performing tasks (e.g. using a computer keyboard or mouse, manual material handling, etc)
  • Accidents, productivity or quality problems that appear to be due to employee carelessness or human error
  • Employees not using equipment that has been provided to them or not following standard procedures
  • Software usability (e.g. website accessibility by persons with disabilities, excessive mouse clicking, re-keying of identical information, etc)
Since 1995, I have been solving problems like what you see above. If any of them look familiar or to prevent them from happening in the first place…I'm happy to help.

For my employer visitors:

Long term, you will strengthen your organizational culture (and save some money) by learning to solve some of these problems yourself. To that end, I provide coaching to individuals, managers, IT & HR professionals, JHSCs and Health & Safety Representatives on these topics as well.
