Abstract
midwives who are or may become carers for adult dependents should be aware of a possible increased risk for neck symptoms. It may be prudent for midwives and those who employ/supervise them to monitor and, where possible, jointly develop strategies to mitigate psychological job demands. The potential hazard posed by work in awkward postures warrants consideration of how midwives may minimize time spent working in these postures.
