Telework and associated MSDs

EU-OSHA, via three OSHwiki articles offers insights on telework and associated work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs):

• “Practical tips to make home-based telework as healthy, safe and effective as possible” include advice aimed at the occupational health and well-being of teleworkers.
• “Musculoskeletal disorders and telework” describes the main MSD risk factors related to telework and presents preventive recommendations and approaches to address them.
• “Risk assessment and telework – checklist” allows readers to conduct a risk assessment and prepare a checklist to help identify hazards and potential prevention measures.

OSHwiki is based on the Wikipedia concept of developing an online encyclopeadia where users collaborate to create and share knowledge.
