Abstract of the Seminar :
Work-related musculoskeletal injuries (WMSI) represent a major source
of work disability. There are two types of WMSI in the workplace. Acute
WMSI most often develops from a specific mechanical stressor that
traumatises certain musculoskeletal tissues and results in the sudden
onset of pain and possibly movement limitation. On the other hand,
chronic WMSI seldom occurs during a single incident of injury. These
injuries have been given a number of labels including cumulative trauma
disorders, repetitive trauma disorders, repetitive strain injuries and
overuse syndrome. They are defined as disorders or diseases of the
musculoskeletal system, which may be caused, aggravated, accelerated or
exacerbated by workplace exposures and impair the work capacity of the
worker. This seminar will introduce common cumulative trauma disorders
at the workplace and discuss how to use ergonomics to prevent WMSI.
