Musculoskeletal health in the workplace: a toolkit for employers

Employers have a legal duty to provide safe workplaces that do not damage employees health, and a key part of this is considering risk around musculoskeletal health. This toolkit developed in partnership with ARMA, provides practical advice for employers regarding employee musculoskeletal health and reducing workplace absence.

Each workplace has its own circumstances that can impact on our musculoskeletal health positively and negatively. This musculoskeletal health toolkit can help you understand the challenges specific to your workplace, reduce the risks of problems, help to keep those with existing problems in work and aid recovery where possible.
