OHCOW - Ergonomics and Driving
It wouldn't seem that sitting in a moving vehicle would be hazardous to your health, but think: After a long drive to the cottage, are you stiff as soon as you get out of the car? ; Does your whole body feel exhausted after driving the truck all day? ; Is lifting suitcases from the trunk of your taxi harder on your back after driving your fare across town? ; Do you feel like you need a couple of minutes to stretch out your back after driving the forklift for the whole afternoon? ; Do you have pain in your back, shoulders or neck?
