Back pain

 


Activities

  • Invite a community physiotherapist into your workplace to talk to staff
  • If staff are doing sedentary jobs form a lunchtime walking club to promote physical activity and to get the circulation going
  • Ensure staff are able to take short and longer breaks regularly (micro and macro pauses)
  • Do a back care quiz (Back Care Quiz - Word version, Back Care Quiz - pdf version).
  • Introduce a physical activity policy as physically active people are much less likely to get musculo-skeletal problems
