REBA
Rapid Entire Body Assessment
Overview
REBA is a whole -body postural assessment tool — designed to assess the musculoskeletal risk associated with dynamic, unpredictable, and rapidly changing working postures that cannot be adequately captured by tools designed for static or repetitive tasks. R EBA evaluates postures of the trunk, neck, legs, upper arms, lower arms, and wrists — alongside load or force, coupling quality, and activity type — to produce a REBA score from one to fifteen that directly maps to an action level from negligible to very h igh risk. REBA is particularly suited to healthcare, construction, and service industry tasks where the full body is engaged in variable, unpredictable postures.
