According to OSHA, one in five workplace injuries are related to the back, with over one million back injuries occurring on the job annually. Most happen during lifting tasks, underscoring the need for proper techniques and support.

Brass Knuckle has published a quick-reference lifting guide aimed at improving workplace safety by outlining correct lifting postures, motions and common pitfalls to avoid. This guide is suitable for posting in facilities to raise awareness among crane operators and other heavy equipment workers.

In addition, Brass Knuckle’s BKBS Back Support belt provides adjustable lumbar support and distributes pressure evenly through elastic suspenders. Designed for comfort and durability, the belt includes padding and a double hook-and-loop closure system. It is offered in four sizes to ensure a secure fit.

The guide is available for download on Brass Knuckle’s website, helping employers reduce injury-related costs and downtime.
