Workplace
injuries such as repetitive strain injuries
(RSI's) account for 42% of all lost time
claims and 50% of all lost time days. To
increase awareness on these issues, the
Occupational Health Clinics for Ontario
Workers is pleased to offer the 12th annual
RSIPLUSAwareness Day on Monday
February 28, 2011.
With the aid of
the
eDome at Cambrian College, now anyone
can access this year's RSI Day event
regardless of geographic location. All that
is required is a high speed internet
connection, sound, and
Microsoft Live Meeting. Using this
method people will be able to partake in the
event regardless of geographic location.
Attendees using this method will be able to
ask questions through the internet to any of
the presenters. It is asked that all
interested parties in the Sudbury area
attend the event in person.
The day before
the event, the website address and login
password will be sent to all participants
not located in Sudbury as well as the
handouts for the presentations.
The registration
form, and agenda can be found below. If you
do not receive a reply regarding your
registration within 3 business days please
contact Trevor Schell at the address below.
Unfortunately,
the eDome is no longer able to donate
services to non-profit organizations. Due
to the success and powerful initiative the
RSI Awareness Conference has become, we
would like to make every effort to keep this
event free of charge and open to all
interested parties. If you are interested
in becoming a sponsor of this year’s event
please e-mail Trevor Schell at the address

Please feel free
to forward this information to anyone you
feel may benefit from it.
