Rapid Response is a three-phase repetitive stress injury prevention program for U.S.-based Chevron employees. A staff of physical therapists, occupational therapists and ergonomic evaluators implement the three phases: a workstation evaluation, a clinical screen and job-specific conditioning. The program helps employees recognize signs of discomfort, encourages them to report early, and emboldens them to reduce risk and make their health and safety a top priority. Over the past 10 years, Rapid Response has seen over 10,000 participants, an average of 1,077 participants per year since 2010.
