Continuous pressure at legs is associated with various kinds of lower limb disorders like varicose vein and plantar fasciitis, etc. To enhance the awareness on the occupational health risk of standing at work, Occupational Safety & Health Council will hold an online seminar on 1 November 2022, at which representatives of Labour Department will address the related information, including “Guidance Note on Standing at Work and Service Counter Design” and provide practical preventive measures to employers and employees on reducing the health risks of standing work. Enrolment will be closed on 31 October 2022(Monday). All are welcome.
