Musculoskeletal disorders in the health and social services sector

In April 2024, EUROGIP and its partners—Vhp (NL) and KU Leuven (BE)—as part of the consortium led by PANTEIA (NL), were awarded the contract titled “Overview of the Status of Work-Related Musculoskeletal Risks and Their Consequences in the Health and Social Care Sector in the EU: Collection and Review of Existing Information.”

The objective of this one-year contract is to identify the main risk factors for MSDs in this sector, as well as to select and present brief examples of best practices and workplace interventions; the eight most significant examples will be examined in greater depth.
