The Pacific Northwest Ergonomics Roundtable

The Ergonomics Roundtable is a separate organization that shares PSHFES’ objectives of providing education and networking opportunities for ergonomics enthusiasts. PSHFES supports the Ergonomics Roundtable by publicizing its events. Membership in PSHFES is not necessary to participate in the Ergonomics Roundtable.

Meetings are held Friday mornings from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

A notice of the meeting will go out one month prior to the meeting with a draft agenda and a call for RSVP. Please RSVP if you intend to come to the meeting as the host needs to know the size of room to schedule.
