Little information currently exists regarding the risk of low-back disorders among youth who perform physically demanding farm activities. Thus, a field study was conducted in which children and adolescents who engage in farm work were recruited, fit

The evaluation of low-back disorder risk associated with materials handling tasks can be performed using a variety of assessment tools. Most of these tools vary greatly in their underlying logic, yet few have been assessed for their predictive abilit

The focus of this study was to determine the amount of data needed to ensure sufficient accuracy in estimating mean trunk motions of employees performing industrial manual materials handling tasks. Over 450 tasks were selected, in which the load weig

Low back disorders in distribution centres or warehouses have been identified as an area of elevated risk in many industries. The task of an order selector requires workers manually to lift boxes from storage bins to a mobile pallet. This study explo

Current ergonomic techniques for controlling the risk of occupationally-related low back disorder consist of static assessments of spinal loading during lifting activities. This may be problematic because several biomechanical models and epidemiologi

Children and adolescents who perform farm chores are exposed to cumulative trauma injury risks, particularly to the low back. For example, they may routinely handle heavy materials and need to adopt awkward postures during farm chores. Two potential

It is estimated that the prevalence of work-related back pain in the U.S., with at least one lost workday, is 4.6% (Guo et al., 1999). This suggests that nearly 1 in 20 employees is always afflicted with this disorder. Nationally, total indirect cost

This study investigated trunk kinematic differences between lifts performed using either one hand (unsupported) or two hands. These effects were studied while beginning the lifts from different asymmetric starting positions and while lifting differen
