Our Back Safety training course helps employees understand how to prevent back injuries on the job through proper lifting techniques, good posture, and ergonomic work practices. Back injuries are one of the leading causes of lost-time workplace injuries and workers' compensation claims — more than one million workers suffer back injuries each year in the United States, accounting for one in every five workplace injuries or illnesses. The effects of a back injury can last for months, years, or a lifetime. This program focuses on practical, everyday injury prevention techniques that employees can apply immediately while lifting, twisting, reaching, and performing physically demanding tasks. Available in English and Spanish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is back safety training required by OSHA?

OSHA does not have a specific standard solely dedicated to back injury prevention, but back safety training is widely recognized as a best practice and is encouraged under OSHA's General Duty Clause, which requires employers to provide a workplace free from recognized hazards. Many employers include back safety as a required part of new hire orientation and annual refresher training programs.

How often should back safety training be conducted?

Most safety professionals recommend back safety training at the time of hire and annually thereafter, or whenever an employee's job duties change to involve more physically demanding tasks. It is also commonly used following a back injury incident as part of a corrective action program.

Does this subscription automatically renew?

Yes. This is a prepaid subscription that automatically renews at the end of each term at the then-current price unless canceled. You can view, manage, or cancel your subscription at any time through your account portal.

What's the difference between Streaming, MP4, USB, and DVD?

Streaming gives you instant online access from any device — no download required. MP4 is a one-time download you host on your own platform such as an LMS, file server, or SharePoint. USB and DVD are physical media shipped to you, best for classroom training where internet access is limited or unavailable.

If I purchase the USB, can I copy the video to share with others?

No. The video on the USB is encrypted and licensed to only be played from the USB. It must be inserted in your computer for it to play.

What documentation is provided for compliance recordkeeping?

The kit includes a compliance manual, employee quiz and answer key, completion certificates, wallet/ID cards, an attendance log, a training outline, and back safety supplemental printouts — everything needed to document that training was completed.

How do I access the Documentation on the DVD?

You will need to access the DVD with a computer so you can browse to the Documentation folder.
