Osa aineistosta on tarkoitettu erityisesti tietyille toimijoille, kuten työnantajille, työntekijöille tai johtajille, ja osa on tarkoitettu tuki- ja liikuntaelinsairauksien hallintaan tietyissä työntekijäryhmissä. Aineistoja voidaan suodattaa kaikkien näiden tai monien muiden erilaisten kategorioiden mukaan, joten hakemansa löytäminen on todella helppoa.
