Abstract: Two engineering control interventions (PS and VL) will be tested for their effectiveness in reducing self-reported pain in multiple body parts (neck, shoulder, back and knees) and injury records of 960 employees performing baggage handling tasks using a prospective experimental design. Information on WMSD risk factors including job rotation, duration of MMH, working methods, personal and psychosocial status of workers will be collected. A complete randomization nested in crew and shift sampling strategy will be used for recruiting study participants. WMSD risk and incidence data will be collected at baseline, 1 and 2 years after implementation of the two interventions. The effectiveness of the interventions will be assessed by a significant reduction in WMSD risks or incidence rates at the end of the two follow-up periods. Additionally¸ through the prospective study design, a potential exposure-response relationship between the WMSD physical risk factors and WMSD incidence, adjusted for personal and psychosocial factors, will be evaluated for airport baggage handlers.
