Assessing the workplace is an important step in preventing workplace injuries, particularly those related to musculoskeletal disorders.
One critical aspect of this assessment is including the workers themselves in the process. Workers have first-hand knowledge of their job requirements and can identify areas that cause pain, discomfort, fatigue, or frustration.
By including workers in the assessment process, their expertise can be utilized to identify potential hazards and implement solutions to improve workplace safety and prevent injuries.
Ultimately, involving workers in the assessment process can help create a safer and healthier work environment for everyone.
