Description
Making direct store deliveries is a physically demanding job. The primary function is to handle products, which involves unloading trucks or vans, and moving products through the receiving area of a store. Unless you're delivering something light like potato chips, the job will usually require a fair amount of heavy lifting, which comes with a risk of physical injuries. Almost always, lifting injuries are disabling, affecting the back, shoulders, and feet. With that, it is important to be ready both physically and mentally. In this video, we're going to teach you how to prepare for a physically demanding workday. We'll also teach you proper lifting techniques and go over how to safely use some of the tools of the trade to move your products into and around the store.
