Work Related Musculoskeletal Disorders

A systems approach is essential in addressing work related musculoskeletal disorders associated with VDT work. One integral component in the systems methodology is that of designing, developing and implementing an effective VDT training program. This paper specifically focuses on the importance of a VDT training program, how the training should be comprehensive, and systematically evaluated. Elements of a successful ergonomie VDT training program are described and examples of two successful VDT training programs are given.

Different Sources

Different sources can lead to modifications at a workstation such as external (out of control of the company) and internal (intended by the company) sources. Modifications from both source types could potentially influence the level of exposure of employees to different risk factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders. The use of different ergonomic evaluation methods can help understand the influence of modifications at a workstation and whether they have a positive or negative impact. This is shown through an example from the fish processing industry.
