MSK pain is your hidden productivity cost
Low back pain, joint stiffness, reduced mobility. These aren’t just personal health issues they’re some of the leading causes of lost productivity in the workforce.
Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions are a top driver of absenteeism, presenteeism, and long-term sick leave. And yet, they often go unaddressed until they become severe enough to require medical leave or surgery.
Joint Academy offers a proactive solution. By giving employees direct access to clinically validated treatment through a simple app, you can reduce the burden of MSK at both individual and organizational levels.
Here’s how early digital treatment supports a healthier workforce
- Fewer sick days
When employees have access to immediate, guided treatment, they’re more likely to manage pain early and avoid extended time away from work. - Increased retention and satisfaction
Supporting physical health shows employees you value their wellbeing. That builds loyalty and helps create a more sustainable work culture. - Lower long-term healthcare costs
Treating MSK conditions early, before surgery or long-term leave is required, significantly reduces healthcare spend and insurance claims.
Prevention that fits into everyday life
Employees don’t need to leave work, book appointments, or navigate a referral maze. They can start treatment on their terms, right from their phone.
For employers, that means healthier teams and lower risk. For employees, it means less pain, more movement, and better days at work.
