Choose the right approach for you
Every company has different compliance challenges. Shape your ideal safety solution from three flexible options.
Full Health Surveillance
An occupational health assessment of a full fitness for work is to establish if that employee is fit to carry out their day to day duties within their job role.
Health Surveillance Medicals
A health surveillance system can highlight hazards in your workplace that are not properly being controlled. Opus help you to reduce these hazards.
Tailored Health Surveillance
Tailored surveillance not only ensures compliance with regulatory requirements but also promotes the overall well-being of employees, creating a safer work environment.
Musculoskeletal Assessment
Managing MSDs includes prevention, early symptom reporting, and effective rehabilitation.
Minimizing MSD Risks
Employers can take steps to reduce the risk of MSDs in workers.
Early Reporting of Symptoms
Prompt reporting and treatment of MSD symptoms are crucial for recovery.
Commonly Affected Body Parts
MSDs frequently impact the lower back, shoulders, and limbs.
Importance of MSK Assessments
Regular MSK assessments are vital to reduce work-related injuries and absences.
Why Testing is Important
MSDs include injuries and conditions that can affect the back, joints and limbs. You:
- Can do things to prevent or minimise the risk of your workers (and others who may be affected by what they do) developing MSDs
- Cannot prevent all MSDs, so early reporting of symptoms, proper treatment and suitable rehabilitation are essential
The parts of the body most likely to be affected by MSDs are:
- The lower back
- Shoulders, forearms, wrists and hands, as well as the neck
- The hips, legs, knees, ankles and feet
Workers can have different kinds of MSDs at the same time
In 2018, MSK problems were the second most common cause of sickness absence, which accounted for 27.8 million days lost in work (19.7% of total sickness absence)
Why it is important to carry out MSK assessments:
- To identify any current MSK medical conditions
- To help reduce a risk of injury affecting an employee
- MSK can be one of the highest causes of work loss
- MSK is essential for all kinds of different job roles
