About this webinar: Localized fatigue can cause significant discomfort and interfere with manual work activities. It also may be a precursor or harbinger of chronic musculoskeletal disorders. This presentation will familiarize attendees with 1) causes and effects of localized fatigue on workers, 2) models for predicting work limits for sustained and repetitive exertions, specifically the ACGIH TLV® for localized fatigue of the upper limb, and 3) resources and procedures for applying the TLV®.
