Efficacy of text messaging apprentices to reinforce ergonomics and safety voice training

Laurel D. Kincl, Jennifer A. Hess, Douglas L. Weeks, Amelia Vaughan, Dan Anton. Journal of Safety Research, 2020.

J Safety Res. 2020 Sep:74:35-43. doi: 10.1016/j.jsr.2020.04.007. Epub 2020 Apr 30.

Injuries and work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are common among masons due to the physically demanding nature of laying brick, block and other materials. The SAfety Voice for Ergonomics (SAVE) program integrates training in ergonomic and safety problem-solving skills into masonry apprenticeship training, and this study assessed the efficacy of text messaging to reinforce program content. SAVE effectiveness, including the use of text messaging, was evaluated at masonry apprenticeship training centers across the United States by comparing three experimental groups: (1) those receiving ergonomics training, (2) those receiving ergonomics and SAVE training, and a (3) control. Refresher training for the first two groups was implemented by sending weekly text messages for six months. Half of the text messages required a response that tested knowledge or assessed behavior, while the remaining ones reiterated SAVE concepts.
