Risks of working without a lifting aid
It is bad to do regular and heavy lifting. When lifting heavy objects, there is a risk of damaging the back muscles. The connective tissue bands around the spine or the intervertebral discs. The heavier you lift, the greater the risk of damage. But even lifting light objects can lead to damage, for example because it must be done in an unfavorable position (bending, twisting or with arms raised) or by lifting too many times in a row and not enough recovery time. You can read more about this in the Occupational Health and Safety Portal.
