    "PRN Ergonomic Services has been the main ergonomic contractor for Sony Electronics since 1997.  They have provided almost 1000 on-site workstation evaluations for our employees.  Their 1-on-1 ergonomic training has provided relief and comfort to countless employees whose daily tasks include repetitive motions of their upper extremities.  Their involvement has likely prevented many injuries, improved productivity and saved us money.  They've help me with program development, preparation of documentation and reference materials and selection of ergonomic equipment, supplies and furniture.  They also have provided customized classroom training to our various business groups.  When it comes to ergonomics, I need not look any where but PRN" .
