Back pain is one of the leading causes of injury in both the workplace and general industry. It afflicts nearly two-thirds of the current workforce and is one of the most common reasons for missed work.
How Your Back Works
Your back is one of the central parts of your body, becoming the information highway for how transmissions are sent. Each action you do corresponds to a response in your back and can positively or negatively impact it.
Causes of Back Pain
Back pain is a direct result of over exertion and over straining. The repetitive nature of the same tasks can quickly aggravate or create injury.
Safe Lifting & Sitting
Through lifting, carrying, and setting the load down, back pain prevention begins with awareness and training. Sitting with proper posture, distance, and with your back against the chair are ways to avoid back pain from just sitting.
Prevention & Relief
You want to develop habits which not only help aid against back injuries, but also build up a tolerance to prevent it. However, many additional factors, such as nutrition and exercise, play a major role in the back’s ability to protect itself effectively.
