Overview
Analysis of data collected by the National Safety Council, insurance carriers and various government agencies indicates that about one-third of all work-related injuries are back overexertions from lifting and carrying. These injuries account for about 40% of all workers’ compensation payments and lost workdays. Overexertions from lifting and carrying are a significant source of injuries in our own workplaces as well.
