Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSD's) Assessments

We offer MSD assessments and advice for your specific workplace needs.

Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) are injuries or pain affecting muscles, joints, nerves, and tendons. They most commonly affect the limbs, shoulders, neck and back.

We provide help with MSDs through workplace assessments, presentations or awareness sessions. Learning how these injuries happen and how to prevent them is a key part of workplace safety.

Work-related MSDs develop when your work environment or job tasks contribute to the condition. Poor manual handling techniques are a common cause. These conditions can get worse or last longer because of workplace factors.

For more information, see this resource from the Health and Safety Executive:

We also offer manual handling training for your business.

Personal Ergonomic Assessments

Ergonomic assessment for individuals can be required for Occupational Health, Managers and Human Resources when an employee has complained of discomfort or injury carrying out their job, as part of a investigative process or legal claim, or as part of a return-to-work package.

Assessments are particular suitable for any areas within a worker’s environment were concerns have been raised by themselves or line managers. The objectives of the survey are to reduce the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI), improve wellbeing and maintain/improve productivity.

An ergonomic assessment provides detailed information on the task, equipment used, working environment and provide comprehensive information on the individual working in-situ.
