Time for some heavy lifting? It's all part of a day's work at the building site. Despite the available technology, bending down and lifting heavy loads is as much a part of a building site as a foreman. Every year, more than 16 million cubic metres of bricks are laid by over 300,000 bricklayers on building sites across Germany. Work like this puts an excessive strain on the worker’s spine. DASA provides information about the correct lifting and carrying techniques and the legal regulations and recommendations that apply to this type of work.
