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 Etiscope supports utilities
Evidence in, prevention out.
Assess elevated and field work in real conditions, not simulated ones.
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 Etiscope 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. It was easy for non-ergonomists to learn and use, not requiring ergonomics expertise to operate.
