Theme of Ergonomic Risk Assessment is to focused on prevention of WRMSDs. If the corrective actions of identify risks are properly addressed then ultimately WRMSDs will be reduced if still condition remain same than you need to revised your ergonomic risk assessment.
The problem with all preventive measures is that you can’t prove what didn’t (or doesn’t) happen! This is common in all risk management and quality improvement systems. There is an objective way around this problem. Management always needs to make the best possible decisions based on limited or incomplete information. They know that. But they also know that the better the justification for a decision, the more likely it will be made.
In terms of program costs, the first thing to do is to document actual histories of injuries with their direct and indirect costs. Unless you can relate a business investment to an actual profit or loss reduction it is unlikely to move beyond an abstract discussion. To bolster a particular plan of action, find all the examples that you can of instances in any industry where such a plan resulted in real injury and cost reductions. If you can’t find any, maybe it doesn’t really work.
But even as a pioneering concept, you can demonstrate the “payback” of any project investment against the cost savings in documented expenses. The “faith” part is whether your plan will really work or not. But the business plan will now have concrete objectives, measures and timelines against which to monitor the project.
WRMSD - https://www.safeopedia.com/definition/557/work-related-musculoskeletal-disorders-wrmsd-wmsd-safety. Ergonomic risk is determined by the exposure to harmful and dangerous environmental factors. Two indicators are especially important - probability and consequences.
Hola Ahsan Rabbani;
En primer lugar, cuando se determinan los riesgos disergonómicos por exposición por ciclos de trabajo, debe hacerse por cada trabajador. Sin embargo, es importante identificar el factor riesgo utilizando el método ISO/TR 12295.
En segundo lugar, una vez aplicado el método anterior, el mismo método, va a establecer cuál es el método correcto para ese trabajador, sea por repetitividad, postura forzada, movimiento manual de cargas, etc.
En tercer lugar, es importante decretar tanto las medidas de control actuales, a las medidas preventivas, ya que, al aplicar al programa de salud ocupacional con énfasis en biometría postural, dependerá del médico ocupacional, cuáles serían los controles de medicina del trabajo a corto, mediano y largo plazo en cada uno de los trabajadores, para determinar el cuadro clínico ocupacional por patología
