Employees at a worldwide beverage distributor were reporting discomfort associated with bending and twisting at unsafe angles. The company wanted an objective evaluation of the work tasks that included the awkward bends and a strategy to reduce the frequency of the risky movements.

To capture the data, Briotix Health implemented a comprehensive wearable technology solution that tracked employee posture angles and repetition/duration of high-risk postures. Then using the data, a Briotix Health provider met with each employee for an individual job-coaching session to learn behavioral changes they could implement to reduce the frequency of the high-risk postures.
