Back Supports to Prevent Back Injuries

Avoid highly preventable common back injuries from occupational heavy lifting with proper back supports. Back supports are ideal for workers who perform considerable heavy lifting in their jobs such as personal support workers, practical nurses, baggage handlers, warehouse workers and material handlers, as well as workers who do a lot of repetitive bending such as gardeners, emergency first responders, construction workers, janitors and factory workers. Workers who sit, stand or stay in one position for long periods of time such as bus drivers, telemarketers, data entry operators, court stenographers and retail sales workers can also benefit from back supports. To avoid occupational injuries and minimize costly downtime and disability insurance costs, give your employees the appropriate back supports from Quill, which offers a large variety of high quality back supports from reputable brands such as Ergodyne, Allegro, Custom Leather Craft and Mutual Industries.

Promote Health and Wellness With High Quality Back Supports

Lower back pain is the second most common cause of employee sick days after the common cold. It costs companies a great deal of money in terms of lost man-hours, medical costs and disability costs. Quill's back support come in 8- to 9-inch widths to cover a wide area of the lumbar region, which is prone to the most strain and injury, and many designs have lumbar pad inserts for extra support and multiple stays that prevent curling. Several of Ergodyne's back supports have non-conductive stays that make them ideal in work environments where static electricity is a concern. Allegro offers back supports that have suspender straps for added support and can fit waist sizes of up to 58 inches. Most of the back supports are machine-washable and have adjustable hook-and-loop fasteners that make them quick and easy to put on and remove. Don't let chronic or acute back pain strain your workers' productivity or hobble your bottom line. Promote health and everyday wellness by providing your workers with back supports.

Back Supports That Are Ergonomically Designed for a Comfortable Fit

Wearing back supports all day may seem tedious and uncomfortable, but Quill's back supports are ergonomically designed to make them comfortable to wear for long periods of time, providing maximum protection throughout the whole work shift. Contoured designs in stretchable Spandex, nylon and cotton blends assure a comfortable, body-hugging fit without feeling rigid. Ventilated lumbar pads and breathable mesh shells such as those in back supports offered by Ergodyne allow ample air circulation to minimize sweating. Back supports from Mutual Industries also provide front abdominal support for the patient's core. Allegro suspender straps can be detached and repositioned for maximum comfort and convenience, while CLC back supports have tapered front panels for comfort while bending and come with limited lifetime warranties.
