Photograph eight depicts the office area, which contributes about 20-30 per cent of the overall activity. Thus seated<br />

postures are acquired wherein accessing the items may involve a variety of reaching postures.<br />

Photographs nine and ten depict the low and high reaching for boxes of varying sizes and weights. The rice bag weighs<br />

around 25kg, and lifting/handling is desirable intermittently. Note the compactus system (photograph 11), requiring<br />

reaching within the full body range with squat/kneel postures. Loading/unloading and transferring involves using<br />

various sized trolleys including the trestle trolleys, which are uniquely designed as a bench. Thus pushing/pulling may<br />

involve slight forward stooping for such trolleys and/or holding trolleys with fully pronated forearms at waist height.<br />
