Webinar – Musculoskeletal Health in the Digital Age of Work – the good, the bad and the ugly

Thursday 31 October 2024 13:00-14:00 CET

Join us for this webinar on musculoskeletal health in the digital age as part of the EU-OSHA 2023-25 campaign.

The Global Alliance for Musculoskeletal Health and EULAR are hosting this webinar for employers, health and safety professionals and for policy makers to highlight the opportunities and the risks that the digital age of work brings to musculoskeletal health – amongst the most common reasons for people to leave the labour market both short and longterm.

We will consider
•  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 RMDs due to lack of flexibility.
•  the longer term risks of changing how people work and how it needs to be changed to benefit people and society.

The outcome will be a better understanding of how workplaces can take advantage of digitalisation and mitigate the risks.
