Dr. Matt’s Ergo Hacks: Episode 8 – "Instant Feedback, Instant Results for Temp Workers"

Real safety starts where the action is: on the operations floor. Catching and correcting movements in real time reinforces safe habits from day one.

This holiday season, onboarding temp workers is about more than a one-and-done training. Tools like @tumeke_ergo use AI to provide instant feedback, helping workers adjust on the spot and avoid bad habits.

Pro tip: Build safety confidence with immediate “do-overs.” Better form today = fewer injuries tomorrow. How do you promote real-time safety? Let us know in the comments!

Thanks, Sama. Over my clinical career, I rehabbed thousands.

One thing I learned along the way, is that the human body's ability to repair itself falls within a predictable window. It CAN be overwhelmed. Saw it in my clinic daily.

The art - is pushing one's envelope, withOUT pushing too far. Hope this makes sense. Keep up your insightful posts. Truly - I enjoy them.

A California man managed to restore one of the very first Mercedes-Benz cars from 1886 and got it running again 🔥

@WallStreetMav If memory serves, it was Brooklyn, NY for a magazine printer. Hot, humid summer months slowed down production and delivery.

When Carrier developed his dehumidifying technology, the first thing he noticed was workers taking their breaks near the printing machines.

@timecaptales One wonders how many epileptic seizures this induced.

As a former 'pretty good' kid drummer, I had a developed ear for tempo, feel, swing, etc. This recording immediately made me wince.

And Joe Morello is a jazz great, who taught my late Uncle Joey, who himself gave me lessons as that 'kid' drummer. Maybe Brubeck set the tempo. Who knows?

[The Global Ergonomist @GlobalErgoGuy]

@davepedigo @SVG__Collection This recording certainly doesn't have that swing.

Not implying it applies here, but many a rock album in the '70s were sullied by a 'recorded live' concert track.

In most every case, it seemed there was a coked-up rock drummer - who tapped the song out at way too fast a tempo.

@Super70sSports In 5pt type, in an ultra fine font: "Barely."

[The Global Ergonomist @GlobalErgoGuy]

@MixtUpMixy @SVG__Collection True. And some swing more than others.

Interesting side note. The 'Bakersfield' sound - popularized by Buck Owens - considered these small speakers with the tinny sound.

Same with car radios from this era. Hence, Owens - and the rest of the Bakersfield recording artists - sang in a high register, and often didn't even use bass guitar in their songs.

Historians now believe that at one time or another literally every American alive in the 60s and 70s owned this exact radio.

Before the days of 'click tracks' - when drummers could know the exact timing of a recorded track before tapping it out during a live performance.

Joe Morello was a world class drummer - who taught my beloved, late Uncle Joey - who taught me drums as a kid. Perhaps he was excited at being filmed, and tapped it out a tad too fast.

@SamaHoole Number 3 is a big one. Shuffle relative vs absolute numbers like a card sharp playing 3 Card Monte on a street corner.

Use whichever (or both) to conflate and confuse. Inflate benefits (NNT = number needed to treat) and deflate risks (NNH = number needed to harm), as needed.

This is a truth I'd wished I'd learned earlier in life.

Since adopting what's now called 'Time-Restricted Eating' - popularized in Satchin Panda PhD's bestseller 'The Circadian Code' - I've never been healthier, and cognitively sharper.

Mine is a 18h:6h Fast:Feed rhythm. My feeding window is 2pm to 8pm daily. My second 'meal' is usually very light.

@FrankBr05713205 My hope is you've reached out to Mike Rowe of 'Dirty Jobs' fame to collaborate with his @mikeroweworks foundation.

He raises - and gives away - millions of $$$ for his 'Work Ethic Scholarships' for up and coming skilled trades men and women. It's an outstanding foundation.

@markpri85526174 @Super70sSports That's what I thought of. That Slant-6 floored on mountain inclines. Surely a gasket would go somewhere.
