Sažetak
Every human working activity is related to adequate workload and therefore also stress. The workloads of people working in different working postures form a wide but still insufficiently study biomechanical and ergonomic field. Carrying, lifting and manipulating freight often results in relatively high loads, and in case of the need for increased frequency of such procedures, the result is an exhausting dynamic strain of the human body. The loads that can occur during human activities are in majority of cases related to their extremely non-ergonomic working position. It has been determined that the working postures of the human body are supported by the action of the muscle system on the human locomotoric chain. Non-ergonomic posture of human body is harmful, especially in case when it is forced or when it is in the field of suboptimal condition. High loads affect directly the human safety, and in case of longer exposure of the body to the action of such loads, the possibility for more permanent organism damages of organism may occur.
