Employers have the primary
responsibility for protecting the safety and health of their
workers. Employees are responsible for following the safe work
practices of their employers.
|
To relieve stress and strain to workers' backs and legs:
- Wear shoes with well-cushioned insteps and soles.
- Avoid static postures by continually altering your position.
Use a foot rest bar or a low stool to help alter your posture
by raising one foot and then the other.

Continually alter your position.

Consider implementing recommended safe work practices, including:
|
- Provide stools or a foot rest bar at work stations. This provides
employees an opportunity to shift weight from the feet while still maintaining
reach and accessibility.
|
|
- Provide anti-fatigue mats. Anti-fatigue mats help
contract and expand muscles of the person standing on them increasing blood-flow and reducing fatigue.
