This technique keeps the back in a powerful and safe posture while an object is being lifted. This program explains the five lifting techniques that have been derived from the powerlift position so viewers can move materials safely in practically every situation. These techniques are being incorporated in the JPIA's Field and Office Ergonomic Training classes, and are a must see for the entire staff.
