Mechanical and psychosocial work exposures: the construction and evaluation of a gender-specific job exposure matrix (JEM)

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to (i) construct and evaluate a gender-specific job exposure matrix (JEM) for mechanical and psychosocial work exposures and (ii) test its predictive validity for low-back pain. METHODS: We utilized data from the Norwegian nationwide Survey of Living Conditions...
