Newfoundland and Labrador – Injury Hotspots

The Workplace Health, Safety and Compensation Commission (WHSCC) of Newfoundland and Labrador has produced a series of Injury Hotspots to inform workers of what part of their body is most vulnerable to injury given their profession. Knowing your ‘hotspots’ allows you to know how best to control hazards and protect yourself and your co-workers from injury.

Each Injury Hotspot has very specific injury prevention tips tailored to the profession. Injury Hotspots are available for:
