Método GINSHT - Ergonautas

GINSHT develops the risk assessment procedure for manual load handling published by the National Institute for Safety and Hygiene at Work (INSHT, Spain) in its Technical Guide for the assessment and prevention of risks related to the manual handling of loads. The method is particularly suitable for the evaluation of tasks likely to cause back and lumbar injuries, and is oriented to the evaluation of manipulations that are performed in a standing position. However, it makes some indications on lifting performed in a seated position that could guide the assessor about the risk associated with lifting in this posture, which is in any case inadequate.
