  • Title: [The shoe industry and the musculoskeletal system].
    Author: Bazzini G, Capodaglio EM, Mancin D.
    Journal: G Ital Med Lav Ergon; 2012; 34(1):24-8. PubMed ID: 22697027.
    Abstract:
    Shoes factory workers are engaged in ripetitive tasks, often performed in constrained postures and in concomitance of force applied, which result in increased risk of musculoskeletal disorders. Risk assessment and ergonomic interventions are part of the on-site prevention program, which should pertain also to gender and age differences. Health and safety issues can be adequately faced by an active epidemiological surveillance complemented by ergonomics.
