Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) are the most common cause of occupational ill health in Great Britain, currently affecting 1.0 million people a year and costing society £5.7 billion. MSDs affect the muscles, joints, tendons and other parts of the musculoskeletal system.

It is important to understand the risks associated with manual handling and take appropriate measures to assess and ultimately reduce these risks, so the likelihood of suffering from MSDs such as back pain are reduced.

OMS has the expertise and experience to conduct detailed assessments of possible high risk manual handling activities within your workplace. OMS offer you specialist HR consultants, who have many years experience at practitioner and strategic levels, in both the public and private sectors.
