Monitor your prevention efforts

Preparing to understand and take action to manage musculoskeletal injury (MSI) risk involves making a commitment, developing an action plan, and engaging workers every step of the way.

Continuous improvement within a safety management system

An example of an established approach used to continually improve employees’ health, safety, and well-being within a safety management system is found in CSA Standard Z1000 Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems. It uses the Edward Deming continuous improvement model of “Plan-Do-Check-Act.”

For more information, see the following resources:

• CSA Standard Z1000-14 Occupational health and safety management
• ISO 45001:2018 Occupational health and safety management systems
