Robert Button - Founder
Bob’s passion is helping people maximize their physical ability, reduce unnecessary physical stress, and prevent body motion injuries. This passion started while working as a therapist with physically handicapped adults in a variety of clinical, community and outdoor settings.
His first venture into industrial safety and health occurred in 1986 when he co-developed a conference session on body mechanics that reduce the risk of slips, trips and falls. What made this presentation unique and impactful were the physical demonstrations. These demonstrations proved that small changes in elbow position and foot position instantly resulted in increased strength and balance. Presenting this course at the National Safety Council in Chicago resulted in training contracts with Exxon Offshore Gulf Operations and The Smithsonian Restoration Facilities. And that was the beginning of a long and enjoyable career in the field.
Together with the SIM Consulting/Production Team and client development partners, Bob has created and honed the Safety In Motion® system for education and action. This system has been tested and improved through teaching Ergonomics for the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) and working with professionals and employees in a wide variety of industries and work environments including:
