Yes. Good handholds make lifting and carrying easier and safer.

• Use the "power grip" on loads with handles.

• Use the "hook grip" on loads with cut-out handholds.

• Curl your fingers around the edge.
• Do not hold the load with finger tips.

• Use containers with handles located more than halfway up the side of the container.

• Use the "ledge grip" to handle regularly shaped objects without handles.

• Hold the object with hands placed diagonally.

• Wear gloves where practical.
