[Musculoskeletal disorders and the change in work organization].
In the documentations of the risk assessments required by the Decree 626/94, the risk of muscle-skeletal diseases is totally absent. Therefore, the first of our worries is to rise this problem and to give it the right social relevance as until now it has been considered a pure scientific issue. What is the reason of all this? The real reason is that the main source of these diseases is work organisation! In the actual work organisation in factories, there are a series of correlated risk factors which cannot be corrected without a radical preventive action. What is the border-line between physical and pathological strain? The acknowledgment of damage is only the starting point. The right way to face the decision and to prevent the rise of these diseases is, according to us, a change in the work organisation; an ergonomic planning of workplaces; a vision of factory manufacturing as the result of a balance among cost factors, health as a necessary bound and a progress in the industrial system.
