Risk assessments for musculoskeletal disorders
Over the course of the past nine years we have undertaken risk assessments for workers with musculoskeletal disorders (back pain, wrulds, rsi, neck pain, lower limb pain, etc) in all types of working environments. For example, computer users, surveyors, gardeners, engineers, architects, artists, security officers, police, fire, ambulance and armed forces, and many more occupations.
We carry out return to work assessments.
Risk assessment for musculoskeletal disorders

| Duration | 1 - 1 1/2 hour |
| Location | Individual's primary workstation |

The report is comprehensive in covering, medical history, task, how the indvidual's condition impacts upon his or her work, analysis of the workstation, workplace and work process. Any solution or change suggested will be detailed and justified. If any products are suggested these to will be justified and full product specification will be given along with suppliers. The report is normally supplemented with diagrams and photorgraphs where appropriate. Where appropriate we will also undertake a RULA or REBA assessment so that quantitative data can be obtained. |
