RSI through SafetyNet research
Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) Awareness Day is February 29th (February 28 in non-leap years). As the only "non-repetitive" day of the year, it’s the ideal date to devote to raising awareness of repetitive strain injuries.
To mark RSI Day 2021, we highlight previous SafetyNet research designed to address muskuloskeletal injuries - including RSIs - in the workplace.
