Understanding How to Practice Personal Safety Raj is a clerk at the Cool Clothes warehouse. His
supervisor has asked him to move several boxes by hand
from a truck into the warehouse. The safety manual
states the following:
"Back injuries are the most frequent and often the most
persistent and painful type of workplace injury. All work
should be carefully planned and supervised to prevent
injuries. When working with heavy equipment and
materials, employees should bend their knees and use the
large muscles of the legs to lift objects. They should avoid
using the smaller muscles of the back. They should also
make sure to wear a safety belt. Workers who do not hold
jobs that require heavy lifting should not be asked to
perform this task.”
What should Raj do to ensure that he stays safe in the
workplace?
He should make sure to bend his knees as he lifts
the boxes.
He should try to use the small muscles in his back
as he lifts the boxes.
He should make sure to wear a hard hat as he
moves the boxes out of the truck.
He should tell his supervisor he cannot do the job
because there is no way to do it safely.
