Free Preview: Lifting and Spinal Care in Restaurants
What You’ll Learn in This Free Preview:
Notice the Risk Before Picking Up the Load
Moving supplies is part of restaurant work. The weight, position, and shape of a load can make an ordinary task more demanding than it appears.
This free excerpt from REST’s Lifting and Spinal Care lesson introduces hazards associated with lifting and moving items at work.
The complete lesson builds on that awareness with safer work practices and injury-response information. Employees also need guidance on the lifting equipment, assistance, and procedures available in their restaurant.
This preview is one section of the complete lesson available inside REST.
