6 7<br />
Involves using an upright vacuum cleaner for spot cleaning and wiping of the tables often having to reach<br />
slightly outside the body range but could be attempted with due care. Note these chores being undertaken<br />
without having to manually lift/handle chairs or tables. Other chores may involve refilling the coffee urns/systems<br />
thereby having to reach at chest to waist height, wiping of the tables at the serving area, bain-marie etc.<br />
RECOMMENDATIONS<br />
1. Back care education and correct lifting/handling techniques be emphasised.<br />
2. Suitable trolleys be considered for transferring the crates between the storerooms and the fridge areas.<br />
3. A suitable kick stool rather than the step stool to facilitate easier moving around rather than having to lift.<br />
4. <strong>Job</strong> rotation at least every hour.<br />
5. Working at mid-chest waist height be facilitated with minimal lifting/handling.<br />
