RULApp

RULApp is an innovative tool designed to enhance workplace ergonomics by tailoring working conditions to the unique psycho-physiological characteristics of employees. The app focuses on promoting comfort, safety, and efficiency in job performance, adhering to the guidelines of industry standard NR 17.

Users will appreciate that RULApp places a high value on understanding the functional dynamics of human beings in a work environment. Recognizing individual preferences, such as the freedom to choose one's stance and the need to use different body muscles rather than isolated segments, it is built with attention to the sensory and motor capacities that vary among individuals and can change over time for the same person.

One of the main advantages is its foundation on the RULA method, a recognized ergonomic assessment technique developed by experts McAtamney and Corlett. This method provides a systematic process for investigating work-related upper limb disorders, which is now conveniently available through this system. It thus serves as a critical support tool for conducting ergonomic evaluations, specifically in job settings where reports of upper limb overloads are of concern.

Users have access to a well-structured platform that can significantly contribute to an organization’s commitment to maintaining high health and safety standards. Employing its advanced features effectively can lead to considerable improvements in overall productivity and employee well-being in roles that require repetitive upper limb movements or involve high-risk ergonomic factors. Moreover, RULApp is not only valuable for minimizing the risk of work-related injuries but also for ensuring that workplace practices are aligned with current ergonomic recommendations for maximum efficacy.
