A Comparison of risk assessment of single and combination manual handling tasks : 1 : Maximum acceptable weight measures / L.M. Straker, M.G. Stevenson and L.T. Twomey
Sumario: Many manual handling activities involve combinations of pull, lift, carry, lower and push, yet few studies have investigated how to assess the risk of such combination tasks.
