Incidence and Duration of Sick Leave Due to Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders in the Accommodation and Food Services Activities Sector in Slovenia: A Nationwide 5-Year Observational Study.

We recommend the implementation of countermeasures that focus on early detection and rapid treatment/recovery of MSDs in older workers.
