Ergonomic Job Measurement System (EJMS)

This document outlines the Ergonomic Job Measurement System (EJMS) guidelines for assessing neck and shoulder ergonomics in workplace tasks. It provides detailed criteria for evaluating both high and low force/posture scenarios, along with frequency measurements. The system categorizes movements based on neck flexion, shoulder positioning, and arm exertions, offering clear distinctions between high and low-risk activities. The guide helps safety professionals and workplace managers identify potential ergonomic hazards by defining specific thresholds for movement frequency and positioning. It serves as a practical tool for implementing ergonomic improvements and maintaining workplace safety standards.
