Musculoskeletal disorders 

Back, neck and arm pain are just a few examples of musculoskeletal disorders caused by incorrect movements and postures adopted in everyday life or during work.

 

To combat the rising prevalence of these disorders, the Regional Prevention Plan (Prp) provides for the promotion of good practices and monitoring by the competent supervisory bodies. 

Dedicated prevention plans in Puglia 

The 2021-2025 Regional Prevention Plan requires the Workplace Prevention and Safety Service (Spesal) of the local health authorities (ASL) to prepare annual Dedicated Prevention Plans (PMP), comprising specific measures for specific sectors, to improve health and safety in the workplace. Among the attachments, you may consult the prevention plans dedicated to the funeral services and home removals industries.

Everyone can help prevent the occurrence of occupational diseases by applying and observing the rules and following good practices.
