More and more moving companies are having trouble with their employees due to back problems. It seems that the drivers of moving companies are more prone to back problems than many other types of workers. The reasons are quite obvious: they spend many long hours sitting in their cabins of their vehicles driving long hours. Secondly, another obvious problem associated with moving companies and their employees is the need for the employees to actually move physically large objects. Although many moving companies have installed new equipment for lowering and elevating large objects the movers cannot avoid actually moving large objects themselves. The fact that moving companies are coming up against these problems is translated into financial losses. Insurance companies dealing with moving companies are now raising their premiums in everything connected to health issues of moving companies’ employees. It seems that a special insurance policy will have to be formulated for dealing !
with
employees of moving companies. However, first and foremost the employees have to be dealt with from the medical aspects. The best thing is that any new employee taking on in moving companies should be completely healthy and checked out thoroughly. Following this his movements and activities should be monitored to maintain his good health.
