Back injuries from lifting materials are one of the most common workplace injuries. While completely eliminating the risk is nearly impossible, employees can minimize their chances of a work-related back injury by using the following technique: • Get as close to the object as possible. • Use a wide, balanced stance with one foot slightly ahead of the other with your heels on the floor. • Bend your knees when lifting or lowering objects to maintain the natural curve of your spine. • Use your palms, not just your fingers, to grasp the load. Place your palms on opposite corners of the object. • Keep your head up while lifting. • Lift with a smooth, steady motion. Keep the object between your shoulders and waist area. #WorkplaceSafety #BackInjuryPrevention #SafeLifting #Ergonomics #EmployeeWellness #WorkplaceHealth #SafetyTips #InjuryPrevention #ManualLifting #BackHealth
