Health & Safety
It's a new year and snow season is here! January has already dropped some wintery mix on our region. Whether you're a fan of snow or not, shoveling snow might be one of your winter tasks that you don't give a second through about, but we want to share some tips with you so that the inches don't get the best of you (or your back!). Especially since n
ationwide snow shoveling, what may seem as just a household chore, is responsible for thousands of injuries and as many as
100 deaths
each year.
Tips to Shovel Snow Safely:
1. Don't put it off. Try to get out there early and frequently to shovel the fresh, powdery snow. It's lighter!
2. Consider it your exercise for the day. Shoveling is a physical activity and just like you would before working out, stretch out before you begin!
3. Use your legs, not your back. Make sure you are bending your knees and lifting with your legs rather than your back.
Lift smaller loads of snow, rather than heavy shovelfuls.
3. Control your movements. Step in the direction in which you are throwing the snow to prevent the low back from twisting. If you can, push the snow rather than lifting it.
4. Take frequent breaks when shoveling. Stand up straight and walk around periodically to extend the lower back and do some backward bends to help reverse the effects of forward bending (i.e.
stand straight and tall, place your hands toward the back of your hips, and bend backwards slightly for several seconds)
5. Don't shovel until you are tired or feel worn out. If you feel tightness in the chest or dizziness, stop immediately.
