Over the past several years, occupational exoskeletons have evolved from concept to reality. They have become widely available and are used across a range of industries. Their primary function is to increase human performance and, according to most vendors, they effectively reduce musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), improve worker stamina, improve quality of work while increasing productivity, and keep the workplace healthier overall. Are there any unintended consequences? Word on the street is there aren’t any, and it might seem illogical not to implement exoskeletons.
Unfortunately, most of this information is coming straight from vendors, delivered in a consistent and positive message to most of the safety professionals who seek it. These devices do have the potential to deliver many benefits, but researchers have found that, for all the hype, there are just as many unintended consequences.
