As highlighted by our President Mrs Delfaux : "The industrial minerals' workers, as in most industries, may have to carry heavy loads during their working days, but our companies are constantly looking for solutions to avoid this problem and the possible adverse health consequences. Musculoskeletal disorders are one of the leading causes of disabilities and sick leaves, and it is in the interest of everyone to try and avoid them. IMA-Europe Members always look for better prevention and protection of their workers' health and wellbeing, and we look forward to receiving and disseminating the tools and guidance materials of this very topical campaign".
