Research agenda. 330 $aEvery year workers' low-back, hand, and arm problems lead to time away from jobs and reduce the nation's economic productivity. The connection of these problems to workplace activities-from carrying boxes to lifting patients to pounding computer keyboards-is the subject of major disagreements among workers, employers, advocacy groups, and researchers. Musculoskeletal Disorders and the Workplace examines the scientific basis for connecting musculoskeletal disorders with the workplace, considering people, job tasks, and work environments. A multidisciplinary panel draws conclusions about the likelihood of causal links and the effectiveness of various intervention strategies. The panel also offers recommendations for what actions can be considered on the basis of current information and for closing information gaps. This book presents the latest information on the prevalence, incidence, and costs of musculoskeletal disorders and identifies factors that influence injury reporting. It reviews the broad scope of evidence: epidemiological studies of physical and psychosocial variables, basic biology, biomechanics, and physical and behavioral responses to stress. Given the magnitude of the problem-approximately 1 million people miss some work each year-and the current trends in workplace practices, this volume will be a must for advocates for workplace health, policy makers, employers, employees, medical professionals, engineers, lawyers, and labor officials. 606 $aBackache 606 $aIndustrial accidents 606 $aArm$xWounds and injuries 606 $aBack$xWounds and injuries 606 $aMusculoskeletal Diseases$xepidemiology$3(DNLM)D009140Q000453 606 $aOccupational Diseases$xepidemiology$3(DNLM)D009784Q000453 606 $aLow Back Pain$xepidemiology$3(DNLM)D017116Q000453 606 $aBack Injuries$xepidemiology$3(DNLM)D019567Q000453 606 $aArm Injuries$xepidemiology$3(DNLM)D001134Q000453 615 0$aBackache. 615 0$aIndustrial accidents. 615 0$aArm$xWounds and injuries. 615 0$aBack$xWounds and injuries. 615 12$aMusculoskeletal Diseases$xepidemiology. 615 22$aOccupational Diseases$xepidemiology. 615 22$aLow Back Pain$xepidemiology. 615 22$aBack Injuries$xepidemiology. 615 22$aArm Injuries$xepidemiology. 676 $a617.4/7044 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bPanel on Musculoskeletal Disorders and the Workplace. 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969759103321 996 $aMusculoskeletal disorders and the workplace$94352177 997 $aUNINA
