An Ergonomics Award is something that University of Michigan's students look forward to each year. As a facet of the institution's health programs and services (MHealthy), students are encouraged to find new and innovative ways to decrease one or more ergonomic risk factors commonly associated withrepetitive motion in theworkplace. This year the program's administrators partnered with Lapel Pins Plus to design a reward lapel pin that is not only unique but identifies proactive students as the heroes they truly are.
Students' Ergonomic Studies Pay Off
Most of us are familiar with carpal tunnel syndrome and how it is a major risk factor for individuals who are required to constantly use a keyboard to perform their jobs duties. There are, however, many other physical health issues that can be provoked from the useof other officeequipment and work tasks.
Not only do the students design new keyboard layouts so that your wrist will not hurt or become injured, but they also configure chairs that put very little pressure onyour lower back. MHealthy students' commitment to finding ways to help every day work related motions become safer and healthier is what makes them heroes worthy of praise.
Ergo Heroes and Heroines Unite
The silver lapel pin's custom shape frames the silhouette of the "ergo hero" donning a classic superhero cape. The cape showcases the famous Michigan school's colors, maize and blue. Keeping the custom lapel pin design simple and clean ensures that anyone whose eye it catches will be able to easily see what the award represents.
The idea of using custom lapel pins as rewards is great for any university with multiple departments. As shown above, we can easily incorporate a school's signature colors and use non-traditional shapes. In addition to these features Lapel Pins Plus also offers:
Offset and Silk Screen printed image options
Add-On Accessories like glitter, cut-out, gems and danglers
Rush Pins that can be received in as fast as a 3 to 5 day turnaround
