HOW HAND INJURIES CAN BE PREVENTED? Manual handling of loads is used in all sort of workplace such as construction sites, hotels, agricultural, restaurants etc. even then, no proper measures are taken to fully secure the workers safety. Government policies are many, but followers of those policies are few. Manual handling of loads can prove to be bad for one’s health or even can get oneself injured if exposed. It may cause back problems or cumulative disorders. Loads being too heavy can be stated as one of the problems leading to such injuries. According to the fourth European working conditions survey carried out in the EU-27 in 2005, 35% of all workers are exposed to the risk of carrying or moving heavy loads, for at least a quarter of their worker’s time which exposes the workers to heavy injuries. “Do your health a favour, protect it”.
Pushing objects or pulling uncoated electrical wires can proved to be dangerous and can lead to harmful injuries. And with injuries comes giving off your hard-earned money in treating them. Not to mention that, no body knows how effective it will be in curing it completely. People are left alone to deal with such problems, sometimes they lose their jobs due to their injuries. So, it is better to prevent any such tragedies. You can avoid it by using the new PSC SHOVE-IT hand safety tool. It is non-conductive which helps the worker to safely work around objects which has to do anything with current. According to the statistics, many workers die from electrocution every year, it is counted among the top reasons of people dying in construction sites. This tool is further designed to help to push against flat surfaces corners or rounded edges of suspended loads, move pipes and tabular with the “V” shaped end and manoeuvre and grab slings and taglines with the opposing hooks.
