Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders Assessment and Prevention

Abstract

The World Health Organization (WHO), recognizing the impact of ‘work-related’ musculoskeletal diseases, has characterized WMSD s as multifactorial, indicating that a number of risk factors contribute to and exacerbate these maladies (Sauter et al., 1993). The presence of these risk factors produced increases in the occurrence of these injuries, thus making WMSD s an international health concern. These types of injuries of the soft tissues are referred to by many names, including WMSD s, repetitive strain injuries (RSI), repetitive motion injuries (RMI), and cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs) (McCauley Bush, 2011).
