Resource Highlight: MCAA’s Musculoskeletal Disorders & Ergonomic Safety Resources

August 9, 2024

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) or ergonomic injuries are more than just a buzzword. OSHA approximates that one in three injuries is an MSD and these injuries cost U.S. workplaces billions of dollars each year. MCAA’s Musculoskeletal Disorders & Ergonomic Safety Resources provide the information you need to reduce risk and ensure worker safety, including several videos developed in collaboration with our partners at CNA insurance and an ergonomics webinar developed in partnership with The Center for Construction Research and Training (CPWR), Washington University in St. Louis, and Best Built Plans. These are just a few of MCAA’s educational resources that are free to MCAA members as a benefit of membership.
