The Ergonomics Regulations were promulgated in December 2019 with the due date for implementation by June 2021.

Comprehensive ergonomics risk assessments are conducted using established National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and Occupational Safety and Health Association (OSHA) guidelines. The field of ergonomics is all encompassing and includes all physical, chemical and ergonomic stressors to which employees may be exposed during the course of their work. On-site ergonomics assessments are conducted during which time ergonomics checklists are completed. These checklists allow the investigator to work systematically through a detailed list of potential ergonomic stresses and note any deviations present within a particular working environment.
