Workplace Wellness: Pump Up the Jams
Honda’s South Carolina facility uses the power of music to prevent ergonomic injuries on its production line.
Music blares from the overhead speakers as the first shift files in for the day’s work.
For two minutes, employees exercise together, working their hands, their shoulders.
Every day, like clockwork, this ritual occurs.
Before the daily production meetings.
Before the lines begin to run.
Every day, Honda of South Carolina’s manufacturing facility reverberates with the beat of the music.
