QUESTION 138Not studied yet

Boxes repeatedly have to be lifted from the floor while twisting your torso. How should you first reduce the risk?

Ergonomic redesign of workCompared with sources

Answer

Change the work arrangement: raise the pickup point to a suitable height, arrange the task to avoid unnecessary twisting and use suitable lifting or handling equipment. Good lifting technique alone may not be enough.

A simple explanation

A trolley, lift or different loading layout can reduce repetitive manual work. Equipment must be selected and used by suitably trained people for the conditions of the task.

REMEMBER

Change the task first, not just your posture.

Learning together and feedback

Try it together in 25–30 minutes

For an instructor and a small group: choose one C/CE freight transport topic in the Lithuania and EU context. Use your own devices, including a phone and a computer.

  1. 3 questions. In ‘Recall’ mode, first answer in your own words, then read the explanation and mark what needs more review.
  2. A lesson and a diagram. Discuss what they explain and which conditions matter.
  3. One scenario. Decide before revealing the solution. Explain the reasons for your chosen action.
  4. A few quiz questions. Read the explanation for each option. You can finish the quiz early; the remaining questions will be marked as unanswered.
  5. Discussion. Everyone names one useful point and one thing that needs correcting.

How can you share or suggest a correction?

You will find the question link and feedback field below this section. Lessons, diagrams and scenarios have their own ‘Copy link’ button. ‘Suggest a correction’ helps you prepare a note with the specific link and version label. Copy or download the text and pass it on for review.

Discuss: is it easy to find an answer and return to the question? Can you explain the reason and the limits of the rule's application? Which sentence is misleading? Flag any significant legal or safety uncertainty for checking before using the material.
