With many MSDs slow to come on and slow to heal, where do you start? Many organizations have an idea of how to investigate safety incidents like trips and falls but struggle to investigate for MSDs. This session will explore contributing factors, stages of MSDs, and information gathering tips. The session will further outline using the hierarchy of controls based on present risk factors, developing recommendations focused on prevention, and resources to help along the way.

This enlightening session offers a deep dive into the MLITSD material handling initiative, underlining the critical need to tackle material handling hazards that pose significant risks in the workplace. The webinar introduces a broad spectrum of material handling topics, from pedestrian safety and racking to machine safety, Lockout-Tagout (LOTO), and Manual Material Handling (MMH).
