No Worries. Here’s Some Helpful Info.

Why is bending to lift objects risky?


It puts excessive strain on the lower back and increases injury risk.


What is the safest way to move heavy objects?


Keep them at waist level and use your legs, not your back, to lift or move.


Why should you avoid twisting while lifting?


Twisting places unnatural stress on the spine and can cause injury.


Is pushing or pulling safer for moving loads?


Pushing is safer because it reduces strain on the back and arms.


Why is proper seating important in office work?


It reduces pressure on the lower back and helps prevent long-term strain.
