description | Expert and novice workers present different characteristics, particularly for aspects such as foot positioning/displacement and box maneuvers. A biomechanical investigation of these aspects and of specific strategies contrasting experts and novices revealed their potential for safer ways of handling. A reduction in joint loadings, especially on the back, and a reduction in back asymmetries and lesser mechanical work requirements were noted. The efficacy of experts’ and novices’ strategies was evaluated following a training program by means of two independent studies with novice workers. The effects of free practice were first evaluated ; it was concluded that this process does not lead spontaneously to the learning of optimal strategies. This was followed by the evaluation of a training program oriented towards the observation of specific strategies contrasting experts with novices (foot positioning/displacement, box maneuvers, back posture), combined with free practice oriented towards the search for optimal solutions. It was concluded that the novices who received this form of training quickly adopted new means of maneuvering boxes and of positioning themselves that appear safer for mechanical work and back efforts. It is therefore recommended that these aspects be included in training programs and that programs be based on workers’ knowledge and the observation of their performances rather than on theory alone. |
