Chronic conditions are the leading cause of illness, disability and death in Australia and have lasting physical, psychological, social and financial impacts on individuals, communities and the healthcare system. Respiratory and musculoskeletal conditions are two groups of chronic conditions associated with substantial productivity loss and activity impairment. This scoping study assesses the available data sources for monitoring the relationship between these chronic conditions and workforce productivity.

Of the 39 data sources considered, 21 were determined to be in scope of this report and were examined in detail
-
Most data sources examined provide some measure of rate of musculoskeletal and/or respiratory conditions
-
The most common measures of productivity included labour force status, time off work and ability to participate in work
-
Further work is needed to allow most data sources to measure the direct impact of a chronic condition on productivity
