| Abstract Ergonomic, physical, psychosocial, and environmental conditions interact, and play a role in the risk of workplace injuries, including musculoskeletal disorders (MSD). There is a need for accurate and ecologically valid assessments of job exposures and demands to more effectively prevent MSD. This presentation describes the development of the multi-dimensional Database of Occupation-Specific Exposures (DOSE), a new initiative based on direct field measurement, that will support effective MSD prevention and open avenues of research in studying exposure-disease associations. |
