Assessing the level of support of a lower back exoskeleton among landscaping workers in real-world working conditions

Background: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) remain a major concern worldwide. Landscaping workers are at high risk of back injuries [ref:2]. Various prevention strategies are being explored, with growing interest towards exoskeletons. Studies on passive back exoskeletons show a modest reduction [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
