Safe Lifting/Back Injury
Prevention
This
training program is based on information concerning the most important
factors necessary in taking care of your back and preventing injury. The
course provides practical knowledge of back safety to help reduce the risk
of injury or aggravating a pre-existing back problem. The anatomy of the
spine is covered in order to understand how injury occurs and can be prevented.
The different categories of back problems are reviewed, their common causes,
first aid techniques, proper back posture methods and proper lifting procedures.
Application of these basic back safety principles and practices both on
and off the job can prevent the pain, discomfort and sometimes, disabling
effects of injury to the back.
