Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Manual handling in warehouses : the illution of correct working postures

Notas: Sumario: Results from a study on load handling in two warehouses are presented. The loads were mainly handled with the back bent and in twisted postues. The so-called "correct lifting" method was rare. The dimensional constraints of storing systems and the influence of the environment and load characteristics on handling strategies are described. As a conclusion, it is proposed that training in lifting skills should be replaced by training in manual handling in general, and by ergonomic improvementsRegistros relacionados: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 37, nº 4, April 1994 ; p. 655-661Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Almacenes Carga de materiales Ejercicio físico Postura Biomecánica Prevención de accidentes Otros autores: Lortie, Monique
