MSK Health in the Digital Age of Work – the good, the bad, and the ugly – Webinar recording available

Co-ordinated by G-MUSC and EULAR, the recording of the webinar “Musculoskeletal Health in the Digital Age of Work: the good, the bad and the ugly” can be accessed HERE.
The webinar was conducted as part of the Healthy Workplaces campaign 2023-2025: Safe and healthy work in the digital age, and included presentations by G-MUSC’s Tony Woolf and Neil Betteridge.
The webinar included information about:
• how digitalisation can promote and protect MSK health and support people with MSK conditions with personal and organisational case studies.
• the risks to MSK health through sedentary behaviour; increasing risks ie repetitive activities performance managed by an app; and ways it may adversely impact on people with rheumatic and musculoskeletal disorders due to lack of flexibility, and
• the longer term risks of changing how people work and how it needs to be changed to benefit people and society.
