Most workplace injuries don’t happen from a single mistake—they build up over time through small, repeated habits. Poor posture, неправиль lifting, badly set-up workstations… it all adds up. This course is designed to help you break that cycle. Instead of focusing only on lifting techniques, you’ll first understand why your body aches, how strain develops, and what’s actually happening inside your muscles and spine during everyday tasks. This foundation makes everything else in the course more meaningful—and far easier to apply.
You’ll then explore the core principles of ergonomics and manual handling, including the four key risk factors, how to find what works for your body, and how to create a simple, practical plan for safer movement. Whether you’re sitting, standing, or lifting, you’ll learn how to reduce unnecessary strain in each situation. As the course progresses, we move into hands-on application. You’ll learn how to lift without strain, improve your posture while seated, work safely while standing, and set up your workstation for long-term comfort and efficiency. You’ll also discover how to choose the right tools and adjust your environment to support safer work habits.
