Cases of ergonomics-related disorders and employee’s compensation of occupational diseases (permanent and temporary benefit) are on the rising trend as reported by the Social Security Organization (SOCSO).
To address this issue, the Department of Occupational safety and health (DOSH) has launched the guidelines on ergonomics risk assessment at workplace 2017 to provide a systematic plan and an objective approach in identifying, assessing and controlling ergonomics risk factors associated with the work tasks and activities in the workplace.
The introduction of this guideline will assist you in reducing the ergonomics-related injuries and musculoskeletal disorders in your company, and designing best ergonomic practices to support workplace operation and requirements.
