Overview

Safe Lifting In Construction Environments

Injuring one’s back is often caused by one major reason, improper lifting. Protecting back health is the most important part of safe lifting and back injury prevention. This course shows construction workers how the back works and how to safely lift and carry.

The course starts by exploring the back’s structure and function and how to prepare for a lift. The video gives information and directions on how to lift correctly and how to lift certain items. Lifting items from below the waist is even harder because it puts more pressure on the lower back. The video training explains how this works and how to lessen the chance of injury.

Use this course to make sure your team stays safe when lifting and carrying on the job site.
