Support ergonomic assessments and process design improvements to enhance operator safety and efficiency.
Use data, reporting, and digital tools to monitor performance, identify trends, and drive fact-based decisions.
Support continuous improvement workshops and productivity initiatives aligned to safety, quality, cost, and delivery targets.
