Musculoskeletal injuries (MSIs) remain one of the top workplace injuries in Manitoba — reduce the risk of MSIs on YOUR jobsite with the Construction Safety Association of Manitoba's new ergonomic assessments.
Using new technology, CSAM safety advisors can conduct ergonomic assessments for the tasks your workers perform. CSAM uses video to get a digital scope of the work being performed and identify the MSI risks for those tasks. A report will be developed outlining the critical, medium, and low risk factors of that task with how the body is positioned. Your company can review this report, and together we can develop a strategy to complete the high-risk tasks in a safer way.
Following this assessment report, your CSAM advisor can also host a toolbox talk specific to your MSI assessment to recommend and demonstrate adaptations to reduce the risk of injury specific to the tasks on your jobsite.
For more information or to arrange an advisor visit, please email CSAM at safety@constructionsafety.ca or call 204-775-3171 in Winnipeg or 204-728-3456 in Brandon.
