How Vacuum Lifting Systems Help Prevent Workplace Injuries and Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs)
Workplace injuries – especially those caused by manual handling – are a growing concern for businesses across Australia. One of the most common and costly issues is musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), which affect muscles, joints, and ligaments. These injuries can lead to chronic pain, reduced productivity, and extended time off work.
Alarming MSD Statistics in Australia
Over 6 million Australians are currently affected by MSDs, with forecasts predicting a 40% increase in cases over the next few years. These injuries don’t just impact workers—they carry a major financial burden for employers in the form of lost time, compensation claims, and recruitment costs.
The good news? There’s a powerful and cost-effective way to reduce these risks: vacuum lifting technology.
