What our sensors tell us about

Freight Handling - ULD

When handling freight and placing items in ULD’s, always ensure you have a straight back, you’re bending your legs to move the freight and keep the load tucked in.


Taking off ULD gates and stepping into the ULD is always recommended for bigger/awkward parcels to avoid unnecessary body stress.​

EMP Sensor Observations

Sensor observations are a highly accurate and objective way of measuring risk during manual handling tasks.  By using the correct movement you will help reduce stress and strain on your back, shoulders and neck.
