As I mention in my presentation, I wasn't able to find much relevant information from the Internet. Here are few that I think will be informative.
http://www.osha.gov/SLTC/ergonomics/index.html - This site gives a governmental viewpoint on ergonomics.
http://www.office-ergo.com/ - This site gives some good information and lists on ergonomics.
http://www.totalergonomics.com/ - This site is to give everyone an idea of what some of the ergonomic products look like.

http://www.treasuryandrisk.com/issues/14_8/corporate_governance/306-1.html FILLING IN THE BLANKS ON SECTION 404 COMPLIANCE By John Labate. This article is an excellent one about the challenges facing everyone as the first group of companies try to get the attestation of internal controls into compliance by a looming deadline. In an August speech, Donald T. Nicolaisen, chief accountant at the Securities and Exchange Commission, reiterated that “it is absolutely critical that we get the internal control requirements right”. Also of interest was the paragraph of the article that discussed the role of spreadsheets. And this is just the beginning...after initial section 404 will come the quarterly compliance of Section 302, making internal controls a continuous improvement process.
