Back Safety

For many employees, back injuries are something that "happens to the other person... not to me." Yet four out of five people will experience some type of back problems during their lives. And many back injuries are caused by common activities experienced both on and off the job... such as lifting, climbing, reaching, etc.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the back was the body part most frequently affected in injuries involving days away from work in 1999, accounting for about a quarter of the total 1,702,470 injuries in private industry.
