GRAND HAVEN, Michigan, July 26, 2006 – Building on its success in maximizing health and safety of thousands of office and transportation workers, Atlas Ergonomics (Grand Haven, MI) announced today that it will expand its services to include industrial ergonomics and wellness services.  Atlas will support these services with its nationwide network of physical and occupational therapists, providing expert assessment and rehabilitation services at or near a company and its employees. 

“With industrial workplaces consistently experiencing an average of 45-55% of their incidents being musculoskeletal disorders, moving into these environments is simply a natural progression for our company” said David Brodie, CPE.  “Our network of physical and occupational therapists are experts at evaluating human movement and determining causes of musculoskeletal disorders.  Atlas’ approach thrives on a partnership between our proven, results-driven technology and the expertise of our network of expert providers to help reduce risks and related costs.”

"Our goal is to provide companies a broad range of services to optimize the health and productivity of their employees" said Drew Bossen. "It makes sense to develop new wellness services that use the skills of our nearby therapists to address needs ranging from pre-employment screening to return-to-work rehabilitation.  Whether the need is in Chicago or St. Petersburg, now the complete solution can be a simple phone call away."

This expansion in offerings positions Atlas to uniquely address employee health and safety from the point of hire throughout the employee’s career with a company.  Additional information about Atlas and its services can be found at its newly expanded website www.atlasergo.com.
