Task
Applying caulking around pedestals under the raised metal floor.
Exposure
Caulking the base of the pedestals using standard caulking guns required repetitive motion (gripping) and forceful exertion to advance the caulking material while frequently working with the wrist in an awkward posture.
Intervention
Using a battery operated caulking gun reduced repetitive motion and forceful exertion. The tool length was shorter, supporting better posture of the wrist in the two foot clearance under the raised metal floor.
Material
Tool cost ranges from $50.00 to $260.00, depending on the brand.
