Ergonomics for the Prevention of Musculoskeletal Disorders - Guidelines for Poultry Processing

These guidelines provide recommendations for poultry processing facilities to reduce the number and severity of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). In preparing these recommendations, OSHA reviewed existing
practices and programs as well as available scientific information on ergonomics, and reflected comments received from representatives of trade and professional associations, labor organizations, individual firms and other
interested parties. These guidelines are designed specifically for the poultry processing industry; however, other industries may find the recommendations
and solutions presented useful.
