A bill to provide for the reissuance of a rule relating to ergonomics.

Senate Bill 598 (S. 598) would require the Secretary of Labor to create and implement a new federal regulation regarding ergonomics in the workplace. The goal of the bill is to establish national standards for employers to help prevent work-related musculoskeletal disorders, such as carpal tunnel syndrome and back injuries. If passed, this legislation would provide workers with specific safety protections against repetitive motion injuries while requiring businesses to identify and reduce physical stressors in their work environments.
