Knee soreness is a common issue faced by many workers who engage in manual tasks such as lifting, pushing, and pulling. If not properly addressed, it can lead to more serious conditions such as knee injuries and chronic pain. To prevent knee soreness while performing manual tasks, it is important to follow some safety measures put in place for the worksite by SafeWork Australia here.
The Ergodyne range of knee pads and knee supports are designed to protect and support the knees while performing manual tasks such as kneeling, crawling, and heavy lifting. Knee pads and supports are often used by workers in construction, maintenance, and manufacturing jobs to reduce the risk of knee injuries and to relieve knee pain caused by repetitive motions or heavy lifting.

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. Find out more here.
