How to Prevent MSDs and Maximize Human Performance
•
10 recomendaciones•3,384 vistas
This document outlines a 5-part process for preventing musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and maximizing human performance. The process includes establishing an MSD prevention program, evaluating risks, providing education and training, implementing early intervention strategies, and making ergonomic improvements. The goal is to identify and remove both ergonomic and individual risk factors over time to prevent MSDs and fatigue, keeping workers functioning at their peak health. Regular measurement and evaluation of results ensures the program's effectiveness in creating a healthy, engaged workforce with optimized workplace design.
