Does your [back/neck/hip/knee/wrist/shoulder] hurt?
According to the HSE in 2020/21 Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) accounted for 28% of all work-related ill health cases. With 45% of those related to upper limbs and neck, followed by back injuries which were 39% of the total 490,000 reported cases.
We have also seen an increase in reported MSD related cases across our sites which is why we are focusing on MSD and injury prevention in our Health & Wellbeing programme over the next few weeks.
Health and wellbeing are priorities for us all and this dedicated programme is for everyone working across all TEPUK offshore and onshore sites.
