Handle lighter objects by hand lifting and carrying, always observing proper lifting techniques. If weight is too great, do not attempt to lift without additional help. Wear gloves, safety shoes, and adjust lifting support belts when lifting, moving, and loading objects such as cement sacks, metals and pre-cast concrete products. Do not lift heavy objects if you experience back soreness/strain, muscle stiffness/fatigue, or any other physical condition which may be aggravated or injured by lifting. Report such problems immediately to your supervisor. Make sure there is a clear pathway before you attempt to lift and move an object. Do not carry objects in such a way that your vision or the pathway is obstructed. Whenever possible, have a co-worker help. Rest or temporarily store objects in a stable position at a location which does not present a hazard to nearby work activity. Select AllMeeting Conducted by:SignatureCAPTCHA
