YK Balancer [Product Specifications]

For safe and secure on-site work The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare provides guidelines for preventing lower back pain in the workplace, specifically in handling heavy objects. As measures to avoid and reduce the risk of lower back pain, the weight that can be handled solely by human power is generally set at 40% or less of body weight for men aged 18 and older, and 24% or less for women. In the manufacturing industry, there are reports of examples where this is set at around 10 kg. The YK Balancer is a device that supports safety and security in on-site work, including the prevention of lower back pain.
