GRAND HAVEN, Mich., June 15, 2012 — Atlas Ergonomics has been awarded its second U.S. patent in 18 months, for a system that determines which workplace adjustments are most likely to reduce on-the-job discomfort and injuries.

US Patent #8.195.475 was granted to Atlas for its "Method for Optimally Determining Appropriate Ergonomics for Occupants of a Workspace." The system addresses Atlas' unique approach towards effectively fitting a variety of work spaces--including offices, vehicles, and classrooms--to individual workers.
