You might not think of early childhood staff as being at high risk of injury, however looking after children is a much more physically demanding job than most people realise. According to Science Direct, early childhood education and care staff may contribute to 7 per cent of all reported workplace injuries with the back, neck and shoulders being the most common areas for injury.
The result of such physical strain can be costly for both staff and employers with ongoing chronic pain, an inability to work, surgery and other long-term health issues being some of the many outcomes. Whether you're at a long day care centre, preschool or home-based care provider, prevention is the key when it comes to workplace back injuries.
