This document provides content and methods of filling out a short procedure for the identification and quantification of the risk of biomechanical overload of the upper limbs using the OCRA checklist / methodology.

This article presents the data sheets developed by INAIL-CONTARP to assess the risk of many non-standardisable repetitive tasks in the sector. The method used was the OCRA checklist. This method has proved to be reliable and allows users to draw up a map of the risk for repetitive work.

This document presents the semi-quantitative risk assessment of biomechanical overload in activities involving repeated movements of the upper limbs using the Strain index method.

This short document provides information about how to implement the HAL / ACGIH TLV methodology to assess and quantify the risk related to biomechanical overload of upper limbs and the level of effort for a typical posture while performing short cycle tasks.

This short document summarizes the preventive measures or, if necessary, the redesign activities involving repeated movements of the upper limbs in non-ergonomic conditions.

The 60 risk sheets contain a description of the task, with an indication of any machinery/equipment in use, providing an estimate of the risk of biomechanical overload for the right and left upper limbs. The evaluation method applied is the OCRA Check-list. For each task, different work scenarios...

This brochure is aimed at workers and their safety representatives with the aim of raising awareness and involving everyone in the prevention of MSDs, both through proper individual behaviour, respectful of their own health and that of others, and to ask the employer for appropriate instructions and...
