train to empower!

To reduce absenteeism and its heavy consequences (costs, disorganisation, etc.), each one within the company should feel part of the global effort. Hence, training employees, managers and executives is essential, not only to increase their awareness of their own health, but also of their impact on others' health.

All our occupational health and ergonomics trainings are built on the same philosophy: I know ergonomics, OHS and the human body, and you know your job. Working together side by side is hence the only way to improve the working conditions.
Each training usually consists of two parts:
  • a group session (max. 15-20 people) to explain ergonomics, posture, biomechanical hazards and prevention. The goal is to bring each participant to the same understanding and awareness level,
  • a workplace visit for each participant (on job training), during which we will apply the teaching of the group session. Satisfaction surveys show that this is the most appreciated part of the intervention,
  • upon demand, a few muscles relaxation exercises in group.
Below are some examples of our most popular trainings in Switzerland:
  • manual handling,
  • working on a production line (repetitive movements),
  • ergonomics and posture in nurseries and the childcare sector,
  • health and cleaning, cooking or household activities,
  • prevention for paramedics, ambulance and emergency services.

our clients speak...

According to paramedics:

"Excellent trainer. The training is essential to last in our job. Really positive."

According to gardeners:
"Mr Girard managed to increase our awareness during the theoretical part thanks to his dynamic, friendly and didactic way of transmitting a strong message. Furthermore, the fact that he took enough time on the field to listen to workers' concerns helped us find easy solutions to relieve our muscles and joints.

According to truck drivers
"We had to drive trucks for 31 years before finally following a training that truly teaches us how to sit when driving..."

According to SUVA (Swiss national insurance company for occupational accidents), which mandated us to train all employees of Neuchâtel city, the satisfaction of those participating in our training sessions varies between 80% and more than 90%.
