On #WorldMentalHealthDay2024 we consider the mental health impact on work / MSK health. Issues in any of these areas can have a serious impact on the others, and hence individual wellbeing. (1/2)

Supporting those with fatigue at work is key in helping us deliver cost-effective ways to minimise the adverse impacts of musculoskeletal disorders in the workplace. #CMWH research from #HEAF @MRC_LEU @unisouthampton helps shed some light on its impact: https://t.co/BHC9sR4rCi

[UoAEpidemiology @UoAEpi]

Fatigue has a major impact on work. Understanding the impact of fatigue on work productivity and health-related job loss is a key puzzle piece in extending people's working lives. Results from @CMSKHealthWork using HEAF data. @MRC_LEU https://t.co/USgzD4p1LI
