There’s no doubt that 2020 was a challenging year for EHS professionals and workers in industry, both personally and professionally. Many are still seeking relief, but experts are concerned that more challenges lie ahead. The sudden shift to working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic pushed office employees to work from poorly equipped home workstations, putting them at an increased risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). Industrial employers have been doing more with fewer people, leading to extended shifts, more physical demands, and higher mental stress. Has this all led to a surge in injuries—an MSD Tsunami? Will it continue? And if so, is your company ready? We already know that the turbulent years of the early 2020s have led to an increase in opioid and substance abuse due to work-related pain and MSDs. Watch this 60-minute webinar led by our certified professional ergonomists, where they share some of the facts you need to know now, and how companies can evolve to the new work environment, while keeping workers safe and productive.
