Work-related musculoskeletal disorders don’t discriminate by occupation. A new independent national survey commissioned by the Australian Chiropractors Association, and conducted by Pureprofile found three in four Australians who have worked (76%) have experienced work-related pain or injury, rising to 83% of those currently working.
Physical demands, repetitive work, prolonged or awkward postures, poorly set up workspaces and psychosocial stress can all contribute to the musculoskeletal load of a working day.
