FITNESS PASSPORT WEBINAR: Enhancing Musculoskeletal Health Through Exercise

NZPFU members have been invited to a free webinar organised by Fitness Passport.

Strong Foundations: Enhancing Musculoskeletal Health Through Exercise, on Thursday, November 21 at 1400 hours (converted from 12 Noon AEDT)

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are a significant concern for managers and leaders across Australia, contributing to high turnover rates and substantial workers’ compensation costs. In fact, Safe Work Australia reports that MSDs account for 58% of all serious workers’ compensation claims. Addressing these issues through targeted physical activity can play a critical role in restoring health, function, and quality of life.

As leading health and wellbeing professionals, you understand the importance of early prevention. Prolonged rest after an injury can lead to altered movement patterns and reduced strength, prolonging recovery.

This webinar will feature insights from leading experts, including Dr. Mitchell Gibbs, a UNSW lecturer and researcher, and Musculoskeletal Health Australia (MUSCHA), providing data-driven strategies to enhance musculoskeletal health.
