Case Study: Land O’Lakes achieves faster, company-wide ergonomics improvements with VelocityEHS Industrial Ergonomics

VelocityEHS Industrial Ergonomics Accelerates Ergonomics Improvements at Land O’Lakes

Land O’Lakes, a large agribusiness and food company operating in all 50 U.S. states and more than 50 countries, needed a consistent, measurable ergonomics and safety program across hundreds of plants. With multiple divisions and facilities, the company’s challenge was maintaining open communication and standardized processes to train employees and drive ergonomics improvements sitewide.

In 2016 Land O’Lakes implemented VelocityEHS Industrial Ergonomics, a SaaS solution providing e‑learning (seven modules), executive summary reports with risk scores and before/after photos, and on‑site assessments with certified ergonomists. Deployed across 300 North American plants, the program has trained nearly 1,000 people, assessed 406 jobs, identified 566 improvements, and produced a clear risk breakdown (30% high, 36% medium, 10% low, 24% scheduled), enabling measurable, prioritized ergonomics capital planning and faster improvements.
