The purpose of this systematic review was to identify and summarize the research evidence on prevention of Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSD) within Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (OHSMS) and Integrated Management Systems (IMS). Databases in business, management, engineering and health and safety were systematically searched and relevant publications were synthesized. The number of papers that could address the research questions was small. However, the review revealed that many of the techniques to address MSD hazards require substantial background knowledge and training. This may limit employees' involvement in the technical aspects of the risk assessment process. Also these techniques did not usually fit into techniques used by companies to address other risk factors within their management systems. This could result in MSD prevention becoming a separate issue that cannot be managed with company-wide tools. In addition, this review also suggested that there is a research gap concerning the MSD prevention within companies' management systems.
本系统评价的目的是识别和总结职业健康与安全管理体系（OHSMS）和综合管理体系（IMS）中预防肌肉骨骼疾病（MSD）的研究证据。对商业、管理、工程以及健康与安全领域的数据库进行了系统检索，并对相关出版物进行了综合分析。能够回答研究问题的论文数量较少。然而，该评价显示，许多应对MSD危害的技术需要大量的背景知识和培训。这可能会限制员工参与风险评估过程的技术环节。此外，这些技术通常并不适用于公司在其管理体系中用于应对其他风险因素的技术。这可能导致MSD预防成为一个无法通过全公司范围的工具进行管理的单独问题。此外，本次评价还表明，公司管理体系内的MSD预防存在研究空白。
