Abstract:
This document aims to help employers and workers identify non-powered hand tools that are less likely to cause injury - those which can be used effectively with less force, less repeated movement, and less awkward positioning of the body.
Contains an easy to use checklist for comparing tools against several design characteristics that have been shown to reduce physical stresses on the user.
