Injuries don’t care about borders.
Neither do best practices.

Building a global injury prevention program isn’t about copying and pasting policies across regions. It’s about creating a unified standard of care while respecting local culture, regulations, and realities on the ground ❤️.

When done right, it doesn’t just reduce injuries.
It strengthens leadership.
It protects people.
It drives performance.

If you're responsible for safety, HR, risk, or operations across multiple locations, this is worth your time 😊: https://dorncompanies.com/how-to-build-a-global-injury-prevention-program

❤️ This Valentine’s Day, choose the right ergonomics partner, not just the first one who shows up ❤️

Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
Injury prevention matters.
And your workforce does too.

But let’s be honest…

Choosing an ergonomics partner is a lot like choosing the right Valentine. You don’t fall for the first one who brings flowers. You look for alignment. Commitment. Long-term value.

Because ergonomics isn’t a one-time assessment. It’s a relationship 🤝.

If you're evaluating what that partnership should look like, take a few minutes to read this blog on choosing the right ergonomics partner: https://dorncompanies.com/how-to-choose-the-best-industrial-ergonomics-partner-for-your-safety-goals

🚨New blog alert 🚨

Workplace injuries and illnesses aren’t just costly, they’re preventable.

An Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP) is a proactive safety strategy that helps organizations identify hazards, reduce risks, and create a culture where safety comes first.

Instead of reacting to incidents, IIPPs focus on prevention - protecting employees, improving compliance, and strengthening operational performance.

If you’re serious about building a safer, stronger workplace, this is a must-read: https://dorncompanies.com/what-is-an-injury-and-illness-prevention-program/

It’s Monday, and this is for anyone who sits or stands all day but doesn’t actually move 🧐.

Research shows that prolonged sedentary time is associated with a 20–30% higher risk of all-cause mortality, even in people who exercise regularly. You can’t outrun a sedentary lifestyle at the gym; one workout doesn’t undo eight hours of stillness.

Studies also show that breaking up sitting every 30 minutes improves blood sugar control, circulation, and metabolic health, while reducing inflammation linked to chronic disease.

Movement isn’t fitness; it’s a biological survival signal that tells your body to keep functioning.

The fix is simple: stand up, walk, jump, reset. Your body wasn’t designed for comfort at work. It was designed to move ❤️.

Did you know that rolling a tennis ball or lacrosse ball under your foot for just 5 minutes a day can help release tension throughout your body, including your lower back 🤔?

Physical therapy research shows that the soles of your feet are connected to major muscle chains running through your legs and spine. By stimulating the plantar fascia, you can relax tight tissue, improve circulation, and often ease lower-back tension almost instantly 😍.

How to:

1) Sit in a chair with your back straight.
2) Use a tennis ball (gentler) or a lacrosse ball (deeper pressure).
3) Place the ball under the arch of your foot. Slowly roll from heel to toe and side to side across the arch.
4) Roll for 1–5 minutes per foot.
5) Pause on tender areas and apply gentle pressure for 30–60 seconds.
6) Repeat 2–3 times daily for best results.

Simple. Accessible. Effective. ❤️

Have you heard of movement snacks? 🍎💡

Movement snacks are short, intentional bursts of physical activity sprinkled throughout the workday, think 1–5 minutes of movement instead of a full workout session.

For many workers, especially those who sit or stand for long periods, pain and stiffness don’t come from a lack of exercise alone; they come from staying in one position for too long.

Movement snacks help interrupt that pattern ❤️.

Research shows these small movements can reduce discomfort, improve mobility, and support long-term musculoskeletal health without disrupting productivity.

In a work environment, that might look like:

• A quick exercise between meetings (think body squats or lunges)
• A short walk after focused desk work
• Light mobility movements during breaks

Have you had your movement snack today? 😃

What happens when you put 50+ global EHS and risk leaders in the same room?

Real conversations. Honest questions. And a clear signal about where the future of worker health is headed.

Last week, our CEO, Kevin Lombardo, attended the IPMI Annual Conference, and one message came through loud and clear:
Mental health and wellness are no longer “adjacent” to ergonomics. They’re central to it.

From investor expectations to injury prevention, leaders are rethinking how physical risk, mental well-being, and performance are deeply connected. Kevin also had the opportunity to exchange ideas around Emotional Ergonomics, expanding traditional ergonomics programs to better support total worker health.

Add AI and emerging technologies into the mix, and it’s clear: the EHS landscape is evolving fast, and in a much more human direction.

Why Safety Programs Fail (Just Like Gym Memberships) 🤔

Every January starts the same way: packed gyms, big goals, and good intentions.

And by February 🙄?
Most gym memberships go unused.

The same pattern shows up in workplace safety and ergonomics.

An initial ergonomic assessment is a critical first step. It provides valuable data and insight, but just like a gym card sitting in your wallet, a report alone doesn’t reduce injury risk.

The real challenge isn’t motivation 🚫 .
It’s overwhelm, prioritization, and ex*****on.

In this video, Alex from DORN explains why safety programs stall after the first step, and how the right guidance, structure, and follow-through can turn good intentions into real, lasting results.

If you’re ready to make safety progress that actually sticks, this video is a great place to start.

Today, our CEO, Kevin Lombardo, spoke on "Emotional Ergonomics", and it’s clear this framework is gaining real momentum in the safety world.

More EHS leaders are realizing that reducing injuries isn’t just about physical risk factors. It’s also about stress, fatigue, burnout, and psychological safety, the hidden drivers behind many workplace incidents.

Emotional Ergonomics helps organizations 🤓:

• Reduce injuries and MSDs
• Improve focus, engagement, and safety behaviors
• Strengthen overall well-being and performance
