Factors that Contribute to Musculoskeletal Disorders in Construction
Across
- 3. Excessive physical effort that can cause muscle strain and injury
- 5. Handling heavy materials that can increase injury risk
- 8. Individual factor that can increase MSD risk over time
- 9. Performing the same motion repeatedly over time
- 10. Body position that can affect physical strain
Down
- 1. The length of time a worker is exposed to a physical stressor, which can increase the risk of developing MSDs
- 2. Common construction movement that can strain muscles and joints
- 4. Exposure from power tools that can contribute to MSDs
- 6. Physical exhaustion that increases the likelihood of injury
- 7. The study of designing tasks and tools to reduce strain
