Work-Associated Back Problems: Measurement Problems

L. M. STRAKER

Curtin University of Technology Western Australia

Work-associated back problems are a major problem in the British National Health Service. Attempts to reduce the problem can only be judged when effective measuring and monitoring systems are available. This article highlights the problems associated with some currently available systems and describes a new system developed especially for the health service. Examples of the use of the new system are given to demonstrate its potential.
