Link to the Better Backs campaign site

The Better Backs microsite at www.betterbacks.hse.gov.uk is the online home of our campaign.

Focusing on the experiences of fictitious rock band Bäackpain, the site explains to visitors how sensible workplace precautions can minimise the risks of back pain at work. It also gives postive tips and advice for managing back pain if it occurs, emphasising the positive benefits of staying active with back pain. At the same time, it shows employees and employers how they can work together to help people return to normal activities.

On this page, are high impact banners and buttons which your webmaster can easily upload to your site to raise the profile of the Better Backs site amongst your employees, members or other stakeholders.

These are available in the following formats:
