Ergonomic hazards can cause injuries over long periods of time.

The bones in our hands are small and the joints between them can be complex.

You should always inspect hand and power tools for signs of wear or damage before using them.

The more force you apply while using a tool, the less likely it is to get our of control.

You are likely to injure your hands when you use a "precision grip" for tasks that require power.

You should work with tools that have handles that are shorter than the part of your hand.

The best time to inspect protective gloves for rips or other defect is after you take them off.

No gloves can protect your hands if you don't wear them.

Rubber gloves are the best choice for protecting your hands against rough or splintery surfaces.
