Watch the video: Use Cases.

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.
