[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 646965, member: 18708"] Push is PREFERRED over pull, but both can cause injury if you are doing this out of the "power zone!". Technically neither is acceptable if it is not within reasonable distance to your body. The idea is not to compromise your own health for this company. If you reach over and across the belt 500-1500 times a night to push a package that is 500 to 1500 times too many. One of our co-workers, another FT inside guy, hurt himself at UPS with shoulder and arm problems and is out from surgery. He was a very hard worker, and infact worked too hard. Was not great with the methods, either. 4 months out so far. Do not end up like him. [/QUOTE]
