🔒 Safety Tip of the Week: Lift Smart, Protect Your Back Lifting and carrying at work involves more than just managing weight—it’s about how you lift, where you lift from, and how often you carry heavy loads. Factors like bending, twisting, and holding items away from your body can significantly increase the risk of injury. Even something as routine as moving a few boxes can lead to strain if proper technique isn’t used. Always plan your lift and know your load. Check the path you’ll take, ensure it’s free of hazards, and be mindful of your surroundings. Use proper lifting techniques: bend your knees, keep the load close to your body, and avoid twisting. If the load is too heavy or awkward, ask for help. Prevention is key—taking the time to assess and plan can make all the difference in avoiding back injuries. Stay safe, lift smart, and protect your back. #SafetyTipOfTheWeek #TMG #WhereServiceMatters #LiftingSafety #WorkplaceSafety #ProtectYourBack #SafetyQuote #TheMillenniumGroup #40YearsStrong

When shoveling snow, OSHA recommends warming up before the activity, scooping small amounts of snow at a time, and pushing the snow instead of lifting it. Proper lifting technique is necessary to avoid back and other injuries when shoveling snow: keep the back straight, lift with the legs, and do not turn or twist the body. #SafetyFirst

"Big results often come from small changes." - John Wooden This quote applies perfectly to safety! We often overlook the simplest preventative measures, like holding a handrail on stairs, and that's where slip-and-fall accidents creep in. Did you know they're the LEADING cause of unintentional injuries? Taking a quick call while walking, rushing down stairs without a handrail - these seemingly harmless actions can have SERIOUS consequences. Let's prioritize safety by being present in the moment. Be mindful of your surroundings and take those extra precautions. Remember, small changes can prevent big injuries! #SafetyFirst #SlipAndFallPrevention #BePresent #MindfulnessMatters #AccidentPrevention
