Ensure proper lower back and thigh support from chair and that feet are supported. Ensure items are positioned to minimize twisting of the neck and torso. Use multi-pipetters whenever practical. Share workload between right and left sides. Rotate pipetting among several employees.
Evaluate work processes to spread pipetting throughout the day.
Add personnel for peak periods. Choose pipetters that require less force to activate. Use only the force necessary to activate. If standing, ensure work surface is at proper height to reduce need to reach upward or bend forward. Upside down containers can be used to create higher work surfaces.
