TESTIMONIALS “We began testing the insoles as part of our Industrial Ergonomics Program We collected positive data and received great feedback through the C. L. U. E. surveys. We now include them as part of our Safety Shoe Program employees will receive one pair of insoles a year (paid for by the company). ” Elizabeth M. Chevron Corporate Ergonomics Specialist “We had employees from all three tours sample the mega insoles. We handed out surveys how employees felt before they used mega insoles and another survey after two weeks. The outcome/results were great, employees were very happy with the insoles. Those who were complaining about back, hip and foot problems said they felt a difference by using the insoles. ” Richard R. US Post Office Union Safety Rep. “Every department is required to have an ergonomic project submitted and completed each year. Our Medical and Safety Departments decided to try the Mega-comfort insoles in the areas where the employees were required to stand on concrete most of their shifts which sometimes lasted 12 hours. We had distributed another brand of insole earlier in the year and the employees were asked to let us know which insole they preferred. When the verdict was in, all those participating liked the Mega-comfort insoles over the other brand. We then ordered the insoles before the end of the year. By the time January came, we were getting requests for the insoles from other departments so we ordered again. The feedback was very positive. I think the requests for replacement insoles and the feedback speak highly of your product. One more thing needs to be mentioned about you and your company. I always received fast, courteous service. Whenever I had a question or called your company, I always received a quick response which is rare in these days of high tech. ” Cathy T. Pepsico Occupational Health Nurse
