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 11th annual RSI-PLUS Awareness Day on February 26, 2010.
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.
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.
We have decided to ask you to open your hearts to a conference that makes a big difference in the workplace and donate any amount you can; all monies received will help in the purchase of the services needed to continue this event.
In honour of any donation, recognition will be provided on the day of the event as well as in promotional material. Please make cheque payable to the Occupational Health Clinics for Ontario Workers.
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.
