The MSD challenge in utilities
The risk where this work actually happens.
Field crews work at height, in the weather, across dispersed sites. Manual-handling risk is real but inconsistent to observe, and a multi-site picture is hard to assemble from spot checks.
How JointAction supports utilities
Evidence in, prevention out.
Assess elevated and field work in real conditions, not a simulated one.
Visualise risk across every depot, crew and shift in the risk universe.
Match return-to-work clearance against documented role demands.
Validate engineering and substitution controls with a comparable pre/post score.
In practice
Pacific Gas and Electric scaled from two assessors to twenty-six in six months.
PG&E's published evaluation records that the platform met its four customer-defined requirements: instant feedback workers can see, assessment in confined spaces and elevated work, risk assessment from a safe distance, and an API into a centralised MSD risk-management database. Non-ergonomists could learn and use it without ergonomics expertise, which is what let the program scale across three states.
