The term ‘Environmental Factors’ covers a broad range of factors related to an Ultrasound Worker’s employment conditions that can affect an individual’s quality of life at work and their potential to experience WRMSD. Examples include work schedule, number of exams performed per day, type of exams performed, number and length of scheduled breaks, etc.
