Abstract
Information on human health hazards caused by chemical exposure has traditionally been supplied through Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS). This report describes development of an analogous Ergonomic Data Sheet (EDS) to address hazards of work-related musculo-skeletal disorders (WRMSD) from use of hand tools. The EDS includes sections on risk factors for WRMSD, design aspects of the tool that decrease risks, precautionary measures, and objective testing of the tool compared to other comparable tools. The EDS can be used within an Ergonomic Communication Program similar to a Hazard Communication Program.
