Task
Worker is performing housekeeping.
Exposure
When sweeping floors the typical process involves the use of a short handled dust pan to pickup a pile of debris requiring workers to bend or kneel. This exposes them to awkward posture.
Intervention Process
A dust pan with an extended handle eliminates the need to bend over to collect the debris. Quick, easy and much less expensive than a pulled back muscle.
Materials
Many variety stores and housekeeping catalogs. Approximately $25.00.
