Expert scores for team handling container from table to pallet task
| Risk Factors | Score | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Load weight | R = 6 | 80 Kgs and 2 people Possible solutions[79] |
| Hand distance from lower back | G = 0 | No problems |
| Vertical lift zones | A = 1 | This is a little bit tricky, it is slightly above elbow height for the nearest worker therefore consider the worst case scenario. Possible solutions[80] |
| Torso twisting/ sideways bending | A = 1 | This is tricky. Need to view the slow motion clip to see that the nearest worker sideways bends to control the load. This is due to the poor communication. Also, the worker at the near end of the tank is slightly twisting his upper body to see where the load is to be placed. Possible solutions[81] |
| Postural constraints | G = 0 | No problems |
| Grip on load | A = 2 | Some may say that is a good grip but consider A/2. The hands are stretched which could easily lead to hands slipping off. Possible solutions[82] |
| Floor surface | R = 3 | Wet floor definite red. Possible solutions[83] |
| Carry distance | A = 1 | Between 4 m and 10 m. Possible solutions[84] |
| Obstacles on route | G = 0 | No obstacles |
| Communication, co-ordination and control | R = 3 | This is a problem particularly when viewed in slow motion. Possible solutions[85] |
| Environmental factors | None | No problems |
