Ergonomics

What Manual Material Handling Is
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, handling is defined as: Seizing, holding, grasping, turning, or otherwise working with the hand or hands. Fingers are involved only to the extent that they are an extension of the hand, such as to turn a switch or to shift automobile gears.
handling means that the worker’s hands move individual containers manually by lifting, lowering, filling, emptying, or carrying them.
Why Improve Your Workplace
In short, changing your workplace by improving the fit can benefit your workplace by:
• Reducing or preventing injuries
• Reducing workers’ efforts by decreasing forces in lifting, handling, pushing, and pulling materials
• Reducing risk factors for musculoskeletal disorders (e.g., awkward postures from reaching into containers)
• Increasing productivity, product and service quality, and worker morale
• Lowering costs by reducing or eliminating production bottlenecks, error rates or rejects, use of medical services because of musculoskeletal disorders, workers’ compensation claims, excessive worker turnover, absenteeism, and retraining

What to Look for
Manual material handling tasks may expose workers to physical risk factors. If these tasks are performed repeatedly or over long periods of time, they can lead to fatigue and injury. The main risk factors, or conditions, associated with the development of injuries in manual material handling tasks include:
• Awkward postures (e.g., bending, twisting)
• Repetitive motions (e.g., frequent reaching, lifting, carrying)
• Forceful exertions (e.g., carrying or lifting heavy loads)
• Pressure points (e.g., grasping [or contact from] loads, leaning against parts or surfaces that are hard or have sharp edges)
• Static postures (e.g., maintaining fixed positions for a long time)

Repeated or continual exposure to one or more of these factors initially may lead to fatigue and discomfort. Over time, injury to the back, shoulders, hands, wrists, or other parts of the body may occur. Injuries may include damage to muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, and blood vessels. Injuries of this type are known as musculoskeletal disorders, or MSDs.
In addition, poor environmental conditions, such as extreme heat, cold, noise, and poor lighting, may increase workers’ chances of developing other types of problems.

Types of Ergonomic Improvements
In general, ergonomic improvements are changes made to improve the fit between the demands of work tasks and the capabilities of your workers. There are usually many options for improving a particular manual handling task. It is up to you to make informed choices about which improvements will work best for particular tasks.
There are two types of ergonomic improvements:
1. Engineering improvements
2. Administrative improvements

1. Engineering Improvements
These include rearranging, modifying, redesigning, providing or replacing tools, equipment, workstations, packaging, parts, processes, products, or materials (see “Improvement Options”).
9 Improving Manual Material Handling in Your Workplace
2. Administrative Improvements
Observe how different workers perform the same tasks to get ideas for improving work practices or organizing the work. Then consider the following improvements: Yo p
• Alternate heavy tasks with light tasks.
• Provide variety in jobs to eliminate or reduce repetition (i.e., overuse of the same muscle groups).
• Adjust work schedules, work pace, or work practices.
• Provide recovery time (e.g., short rest breaks).
• Modify work practices so that workers perform work within their power zone (i.e., above the knees, below the shoulders, and close to the body).
• Rotate workers through jobs that use different muscles, body parts, or postures.

Administrative improvements, such as job rotation, can help reduce workers’ exposures to risk factors by limiting the amount of time workers spend on “problem jobs.” However, these measures may still expose workers to risk factors that can lead to injuries. For these reasons, the most effective way to eliminate “problem jobs” is to change them. This can be done by putting into place the appropriate engineering improvements and modifying work practices accordingly.
Training
Training alone is not an ergonomic improvement. Instead, it should be used together with any workplace changes made. Workers need training and hands-on practice with new tools, equipment, or work practices to make sure they have the skills necessary to work safely. Training is most effective when it is interactive and fully involves workers.

A Proactive Action Plan
Manual material handling jobs require movement and physical activity. But how do you find out:
• Why workplace problems are occurring?
• Which work tasks may be causing injuries or production bottlenecks or decreasing product and service quality?
• What to do about problems once you find them?
• How to reduce your workers’ compensation costs?

One way to answer these questions is to be proactive in your problem solving. Being proactive simply means finding the problems first by looking thoroughly around the workplace rather than waiting for problems to occur. Then improve the fit between the work and the worker by putting the appropriate changes into place.
