Date Published: 2001
Backaches and pain in the shoulders, arms, and hands are the most common symptoms that farm workers report. These injuries can be disabling, which can affect the worker's earnings and the grower's profits. These are cost-effective ways to prevent or reduce these symptoms. The "tip sheets" in this Spanish written booklet show how to make or order inexpensive new tools or to modify existing ones to reduce the risk of pain. Solutions discovered for one type of crop can be modified for use with other kinds of crops. Worker-management ergonomic teams can be formed to discover your own simple solutions. Also available in English.
