As part of the current UK health and safety legislation guidance, the maximum weight a person should lift at work is 25kg for a man and 16kg for a woman. This is mainly to reduce the risk of accident or injury. Some items may be awkward to lift and even the maximum weights may be unreasonable in certain circumstances. There can also be issues when workers lift in ways that require the carrier to make twisting movements or in trying to lift loads to and from different heights. A variety of different risk factors need to be assessed before expecting workers to lift many types of loads. Protect your work force with the use of appropriate handling and lifting equipment at all times and seek our expert advice on what are the best tools to provide for your employers.
