MSK Leadership Playbook

MSK Toolkit

Time to act

The work landscape has irrevocably changed in the past few years. You are facing an array of unique forces – a highly competitive labour market, growing demands for health supports, workplace morale, return to premises / remote / hybrid work strategies, and a need to contain costs within ballooning operating and supply chain expenses.

While the underlying language around musculoskeletal health may be unfamiliar, leaders can implement a three-step tool: investigate, implement, improve.

Investigate

Recognizing the scope of the problem in your workplace is the first step.
Recognize the opportunities inherent with every systemic improvement.
Consider bringing in outside consultants who are experts in the field of health and wellness promotion in the workplace, like a chiropractor.

Implement

Approach leadership to outline proposed plan and get buy in.
Establish a workplace MSK Health Committee
Conduct a worksite ergonomic health audit or evaluation.
Engage a workplace ergonomic expert, like a chiropractor, to review on-site and remote workspaces.
Ask for feedback from employees.

Improve

Analyze the effects of implementation and early indicators of success or adjustments.
Create internal focus groups and solicit feedback from employee groups.
Establish reporting structures so leadership remains informed of progress.
