Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) account for more than 33% of all worker injury and illness cases according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. While the number of cases in the US is well over 600K per year, there is good news when it comes to MSDs – most are entirely preventable by incorporating simple risk-reduction strategies in the workplace.

In our upcoming webinar, “Five Common Industrial MSD Injuries and Strategies to Avoid Discomforts,” expert Lyndsay Trefzger will discuss the most common types of injuries experienced by workers in an industrial setting and provide injury prevention strategies that can be implemented to avoid suffering discomforts.

Trefzger, a Corrective Exercise Specialist and Athletic Trainer, has helped thousands of employees reduce the risk of suffering MSDs with her knowledge of body mechanics and anatomy. In this educational 45-minute webinar, she will discuss:

  • Causes of common industrial work-related injuries
  • Strategies to implement to reduce the risk of injury
  • Basics of general stretching and strengthening exercises to address discomforts
