EdmoLift products - a commitment to ergonomics
Caution!
People are biological constructions. Their structure of muscle and bone is not adapted to strenuous lifting. Even relatively light lifting, if done improperly or over a period of time, can cause considerable damage.
Lost Workdays
More than half of all workdays lost to work-related health problems involve injured muscle, bone or connecting tissue, collectively known as musculoskeletal disorders (MSD). MSD is one of the greatest health and safety challenges in Europe, since more than 40 million EU workers are affected by MSD. These injuries (accidents are not included) cost employers over €385 million, or between 0.5% and 2% of the Gross National Product, a significant burden on the EU economy.*

Consider the rules for manual handling from the Health and Safety Executive in the EU-directives
Lifting heavy objects can be impossible without the use of lifting aids, unless you are willing to sacrifice your back or limbs. Lifting light items, or lifting them incorrectly, can also result in injuries.
Work absence due to aching backs, shoulders and limb injuries charge businesses and society enormous costs each year. Preventing these injuries has tremendous monetary benefits for all industries.
