The real cost of back injuries

Back injuries are still treated as
the cost of doing business.

Workplace Musculoskeletal Disorders (WMSD) is the largest WHS issue affecting manual workers across the world.

  • $24B The cost of workplace musculoskeletal disorders in Australia, where they lead on both frequency and cost. Safe Work Australia
  • 0.5M+ UK workers suffering a musculoskeletal disorder, over a quarter of all work-related injuries. UK Health and Safety Executive
  • $15.5B+ Annual cost to US businesses from overexertion and repetitive motion injuries. Liberty Mutual

In Australia and other regulated jurisdictions, employers have a legal duty to identify, assess and control the risks of musculoskeletal disorders, including back injuries, arising from hazardous manual tasks. The focus of WHS legislation is prevention through risk elimination (if possible) and engineering solutions rather than reliance on lifting technique training alone.

No batteries or motors. Bands store and release energy when lifting or bending, like an extra set of back muscles.

  • Assistive Takes up to 40% of the strain off your back muscles, on every lift.
  • Comfortable It adjusts to fit a wide range of bodies. Built to be worn all shift, not just for an hour.
  • Easy to use Slim enough to move with you in tight spaces. One switch turns the help on for lifting, and off for everything else.
