Occupational Kinesiology: Basics of Correct Manual Handling in the Printing Industry

From foreword: The locomotor system diseases and discomforts, especially the spine-related ones, are a great burden of modern society. Everyone is exposed to their occurrence risks and complications. Many trade union members suffer from serious musculoskeletal diseases due to which absentism rate is high and their labour capabilities are diminished. It has negative effects on employers as well ; the employers usually solve the issue of absent workers by transferring work tasks to the present workers thus increasing their work load, which overloading may lead to their sick leaves, and thus closing the vicious, ever smaller, circle. People spend a comprehensive portion of their lives at work. Therefore, the way in which we execute our occupational tasks, either correctly or incorrectly, becomes of outmost importance since the task-related movements are repeated hundreds or thousands times when we handle loads, operate various machines, or sit in front of a computer. These occupational risks insidiously lurk for months and years, thus invisibly but inevitably compromise our health. Only when we become aware of those risks, we can intervene preventively and promote our health with no torment at all! Trade Union in Printing and Publishing Industry of Croatia is publishing this brochure within the framework of the project “Dialogue and knowledge build progress”, which has been launched on March 29, 2018, and will last 18 months. The project is financed by the European Social Fund – Operational programme: Effective Human Resources – Social Dialogue Enhancing. The rationale of the project is to provide additional education to the labour representatives by expanding their knowledge about and introducing topics they can discuss through constructive dialogue. Simultaneously, the representatives are trained in the skills of quality dialogue performance at their workplaces. Knowledge about labour-related issues should be transferred to as many workers. This manual is a part of that endeavour. The brochure was created based on the research on practice of work processes in printing and publishing industry. As expressed by the author Assist. Prof. Josipa Nakić, Ph.D.: “The purpose of the manual is to indicate importance of correct movement performance and work in printing and publishing industry and its adjacent areas for the prevention of musculoskeletal disorders with the accent on spine health protection and promotion. In the manual, some of the most common and potentially most dangerous mechanisms of injuries to the musculoskeletal system are presented. The clear differences between the correct and incorrect techniques of movement performance and manual handling of load from the aspect of body posture. Although most of work is done by machines, the portion of human physical work, serving machines, cannot be ignored either.” First, we wish to express our gratitude to the author of the manual, Assist. Prof. Josipa Nakić, Ph.D., who may be considered a pioneer of occupational kinesiology, the area significance of which is yet to be recognised. Her recommendations and figure will lead you through the manual in a simple way and, it is our hope, improve your approach to your health at work and in everyday life.
