Dumping the trash or other heavy material is a high-risk task for workers because of the required lifting, bending, reaching, and twisting required to dump. Back, shoulder, elbow, hand, and other injuries are not only disruptive to the worker’s life and the employer’s schedule, but are costly – in terms of medical treatment, time off, and replacement workers. Safety Professionals from a multitude of work environments purchase Dump Dolly’s to prevent the employee injury and thus the direct and indirect costs associated with the injuries. They realize there is a very rapid transition from cost to savings. A Dump Dolly is cheaper than most minor injuries end up costing an employer. How devoted is your company to worker safety? #trashcandumper #automaticdumper #wastedumping #candumper #mechanicaldumper #trashdumper #MSD #injuryprevention #trashdumpinginjuries #injuryprevention
