abstract="This study aimed to i) evaluate strength requirements and lower back stresses during lifting and baggage handling task with 3D Static Strength Prediction Program (3DSSPP™) and ii) provide additional analyses using rapid entire body assessment (REBA) and NASA task load index (TLX) to assess the risks associated with the tasks. Four healthy female shuttle drivers of good health aged between 55 and 60 years were observed and interviewed in an effort to determine the tasks required of their occupations. The results indicated that lifting bags and placing them in a shuttle were high-risk for injury and possible changes should be further investiaged. The study concluded there was a potential for injury associated with baggage storing and retrieval tasks of a shuttle driver.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
