National Safety Council report shows progress in safety cultures, gaps in risk reduction and innovation<\/p>\n

\n WASHINGTON<\/span>, Dec. 15, 2025<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — The National Safety Council<\/a> released the 2024-2025 MSD Solutions Index Pledge Community Report<\/a>, highlighting efforts to prevent musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), the most common workplace injury. Now in its third year, the MSD Solutions Index shows steady progress in strengthening safety culture but calls for greater investment in risk reduction and innovation.<\/p>\n

Developed by the NSC MSD Solutions Lab<\/a>, established in 2021 with funding from Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), the MSD Solutions Index evaluates how organizations address MSDs across three key areas: risk reduction, safety culture and innovation, and collaboration. Among the participating organizations in this year’s cycle, most (76%) were rated proactive or advancing in their MSD prevention strategies. However, progress remains slower in measurable risk reduction and the adoption of MSD prevention tools and technologies.<\/p>\n

Nearly three-quarters (72%) of organizations that have completed the MSD Solutions Index for the last three years improved their overall scores, demonstrating that continuing participation in the MSD Pledge<\/a> and an increased focus on MSD prevention leads to workplace safety progress.<\/p>\n

“We’re encouraged to see organizations’ continued commitment to improving workplace safety through proactive culture-building and worker engagement,” said Paige DeBaylo, PhD, director of the MSD Solutions Lab at NSC. “Still, the data show there’s more work to be done in setting risk reduction goals, addressing non-physical risk factors like job stress and colleague support, and leveraging emerging technologies to drive lasting MSD prevention.”<\/p>\n
