Across Australia and New Zealand, knee protection is crucial in physically demanding industries. According to SafeWork Australia, this is a major concern in those roles that require prolonged kneeling, squatting, crouching, and working in confined spaces or on uneven surfaces, which can significantly strain and injure the knees if appropriate protective measures are not taken. This stat might bring you to your knees, but according to a report, in terms of work-related injuries, the knee accounts for 13.2% of all musculoskeletal injuries in Australia.

Workers can face several risks

  1. Repetitive Motion: Frequent kneeling, crawling, or bending can lead to repetitive motion injuries, such as bursitis or tendinitis, which cause inflammation and pain in the knee joints.
  2. Impact Injuries: Workers may be exposed to falling objects or sudden impacts while working on construction sites, which can result in fractures or other serious knee injuries.
  3. Uneven Surfaces: Working on uneven or unstable surfaces increases the likelihood of trips, slips, and falls, potentially leading to knee injuries.

By understanding the risks involved and implementing suitable knee protection measures, workers can significantly reduce the likelihood of knee injuries. Remember to prioritise comfort, mobility, and durability when selecting knee protection, and encourage regular exercise and proper techniques to maintain knee health. It is essential for employers and workers to work together to create a safe and healthy work environment that promotes the well-being of everyone involved.
