Why SoterCoach Fits Any Work Environment

Ergonomic coaching isn't just for one role or risk level — it's relevant to every department, every employee, and every site. SoterCoach can be used flexibly and strategically to support your organization's health and safety goals.

Where to Start

When launching SoterCoach:

  • Begin with sites, departments, or job roles that show the highest ergonomic risk.
  • Focus first on areas with:
    • High injury frequency
    • Physically demanding tasks
    • Manual handling exposure

Program Rotation Strategy

After completing a spine or shoulder program in one area:

  • Rotate the devices to the next team or location.
  • Continue this rotation cycle every 6 months or aligned with your existing training schedule.

This ensures continuous reinforcement of safe behaviors across your organization.

Special Focus: New & Returning Employees

To reduce injury risk during onboarding or re-onboarding:

  • Include SoterCoach as part of your standard onboarding process.
  • Use it for:
    • New hires acclimating to job demands
    • Employees returning from leave or modified duties

This early intervention helps build ergonomic awareness and supports safe movement habits from day one.
