1 MoveSafe For Industrial Athletes Upper Island Safety Conference May 25, 2015
2 With every movement and posture You can make yourself stronger or get closer to an injury. It matters how we move every day.
3 Movement Safety Basics What should you know to be a Good Industrial Athlete? Functional anatomy - because there is no body owner s manual. How to warm-up and prepare for activity. Simple principles of safe movement. Corrective exercises to ensure physical work makes you stronger.
4 Warm-up & Interrupt
5 What Influences our Behaviours? Our lazy movement habits conserve energy. Short term gain, (likely) long term pain. We need to learn proper movement patterns, then practice them at work. Workplace systems need to reinforce safe movements (education, training, coaching, warm-ups).
6 What If Everyone understood what it meant to be a Good Industrial Athlete? We practiced safe movement habits and they were positively reinforced in the workplace? Preventing MSI s was as simple as following some basic rules of human movement? MSIs were no longer the biggest piece of the injury pie (by far)?
7 What Does the Data Say? MSI Frequency Discomfort WSBC Costs 40% 40% 45%
8 Why Aren t We Doing Better? There is a large knowledge gap. Many of injuries result from slow hurts so there is no perceived urgency. These injuries aren t blood, guts and gore. What if 40% were related to eyewear or footwear? We have to change behaviour to affect MSIs. What were PPE and seatbelt attitudes like 30 years ago?

27 Prepare & Maintain the Body: Warm Up & Interrupt Increases circulation Increases muscle strength and flexibility Reinforces correct movement patterning Reduces injury risk!
28 Prepare & Maintain the Body: Interrupt static or awkward posture Stretch after heavy work or awkward posture to allow tissue recovery
29 Prepare the Work Area, Tools and Equipment: Tools, equipment or job procedures that reduce stress to the body.
30 Move Safe - Standing Big 3 Fundamentals Wide, Stable Base Hinge at the Hips Shoulders Anchored

38 Summary This is your call to action Warm-up and stretch to prepare your body. Ensure a stable base, bend through your hips & anchor your shoulders. Make a change to improve ongoing discomfort. Change your movement habits for a better life. Give your body what it needs today and still get your work done.
