[]
[null,"Job rotation is often used or considered as a risk control measure, in cases where there are limited options for making physical changes to tasks.\n\nJob rotation sits below physical task improvements, or risk elimination in the hierarchy of controls, which should always be considered first. However, done properly job rotation can help to reduce musculoskeletal strain.\n\nThings to do:\n- Consult with operators and avoid enforcing job rotation if there is significant resistance\n- Sell job rotation on its benefits (variety, up-skilling, reduced strain), explain why it is being proposed\n- Make sure everyone received the training they need to do new tasks properly and safely\n\nThings to avoid doing:\n-  Establishing a job rotation system without consultation with operators\n-  Rotating people away from teams which they are established in (unless they express a wish to work alongside another team)\n- Rotating people into tasks which result in lower pay\n\nThese are key factors which could undermine the success of a job rotation programe. Musculoskeletal pain and injury is believed to have a significant psychosocial element, in other words factors like stress and low job satisfaction, perceived low task control, may contribute to increased reports of musculoskeletal problems\n\nEven without any of these 'avoid' factors, job rotation does not suit all people. Some people prefer to do one task to a very high standard, whereas others prefer variety. This is something you can aim to find out more about by consulting your operators.\n\nUsing this tool\nSimply click on a cell, click on the arrows at the right of the cell to get a drop down menu, then select the risk 'zone' for that particular risk factor in the task which the column applies to. Once you have entered th scores for your tasks, click on the arrows at the top of the columns to move them left and right, until you minimise or eliminate any adjacent cells that are amber or red i.e. any risk factors which are moderate or high risk in consecutive tasks. Once you have done this, you should have identified the best order of job rotation from a musculoskeletal point of view. In the column headings, click into the cells and just type in the name of the task or whatever task identifier you want to use."]
