Medical Director for American Airlines, David K. McKenas, M.D., M.P.H., administered the Workfit Technologies by WORKFIT TECHNOLOGIES™ Injury Reduction Program at American Airlines:

We found that that WORKFIT TECHNOLOGIES™ is the premier group to provide this very valuable, objective, reproducible testing

“When it comes to preventing injury, we found there are some things you can control, and some things that you can't. The most fierce competitor in an industry is one who controls all possible elements in the injury prevention chain, since not only do valued workers get needlessly impaired, but also the company suffers costly and needless workers' compensation injuries, and significant lost time. The company that handles this process best gains a tremendous advantage over competitors, not only because it is part of a safety culture, and workers feel that management is concerned with preventing injuries, but also the company has a significant productivity and cost advantage over the competition. I learned that (Workfit Technologies by) WORKFIT TECHNOLOGIES™ is the first step in that control process: be absolutely certain that the worker is physically matched to the demand requirements of the job. We learned that a mismatch is costly--with up to a 14 times greater relative risk of injury compared to those who were matched physically to the job. We found that that (Workfit Technologies by) WORKFIT TECHNOLOGIES™ is the premier group to provide this very valuable, objective, reproducible testing, which is at the heart of establishing a strength standard for an industry, and thereby preventing injuries.”
