This page offers general risk reduction measures associated with lifting operations
| Risk Factors | Score | >Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Load weight | R = 6 | Definite red as clearly in the R=6 category. Possible load weight solutions |
| Hand distance from lower back | R = 6 | Poor, not really to do with the environment but more poor lifting
technique. Possible hand distance from lower back solutions |
| Vertical lift | R = 3 | Lifting from floor level when taking from bottom layer of pallet Possible vertical list solutions |
| Trunk twisting / sideways bending | R = 2 | Lots of twisting and sideways bending Possible trunk twisting / sideways bending solutions |
| Postural constraint | A = 1 | Slightly restricted between the conveyor, rear wall and pallet Possible postural constraint solutions |
| Grip on load | A = 1 | Fingers are clamped at 90º Possible grip on load solutions |
| Floor Surface | G = 0 | No problems Possible floor surface solutions |
| Other environmental factors | None | No problems |
