If you’ve suffered a work-related back injury, then you know how detrimental it can be for you, your employer, and your bottom line. According to report published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 4.4 million private industry cases of non-fatal occupational injuries and illnesses. Of these cases, some 880,000 were back injuries. Construction workers, carpenters, electricians, and plumbers all rank in the top twenty riskiest professions for work-related back injuries. But, there are ways to reduce your risk and it starts with upfitting your cargo vehicle with the right equipment.
Ladder racks reduce the risk of injury – If you’re a trades professional, a ladder is a necessary tool, so it’s essential to incorporate a ladder rack as part of an overall cargo management solution. Adrian Steel ladder racks are durable and easy-to-use. Instead of risking injury by hauling your ladder out of the back of your van or truck, let the ladder rack do the work for you.
