Project Details
Description
Aircrew are exposed to risk of Musculoskeletal neck and back injury through exposure to vibration and high gravity (G) loads, by increases in helmet equipment weight, and displaced Centre of Gravity (CoG) through helmet use or load carriage, confined spaces and ergonomic compromise. MSK injury affects aircrew availability to function in their primary role- causing either short-term incapacity requiring medical intervention or longer term enduring effects. Injury prevention seeks to optimise human performance, capability, longevity in service, and long-term quality of life.
