Safe lifting is critical, but it is only one step in the material handling process. The material must then be moved safely and then put down properly. Mechanical devices or other assistance may be required. Size and weight of the load, balance, travel path, foot positions, height of the object, arm positions and material handling equipment are all important factors that must be considered and put into practice. Topics Include:

• Basic anatomy and physics of the spine and back
• Safe lifting techniques
• Ergonomics
