3. Workers should comply with safe work practices for lifting and ensure that during lifts, sideways twisting is avoided 4. The maximum lift or lowering per minute should be 1 lift/lower every 4-5 minutes 5. Shift rotation for the lifting of the timber wood should ensure that the total time spent daily in lifting does not exceed 2 hours per worker. This will ensure that each worker does the physically demanding task of lifting and not limited to only one worker.

In most cases, job modifications and legislative recommendations to minimize the risk of MSIs may be necessary. Prolonged exposure to a task that can affect the musculo-skeletal system should be avoided or minimized. Repetitive flexion and extension of parts of the body should be minimized when possible (Palmer et al., 2007). Collective efforts should be made by the employer and the worker in identifying, assessing, evaluating and mitigating the risk factors for MSIs in the workplace.…
