Hand, Wrist and Finger Safety

Each year over 500,000 people injure their hands, wrists or fingers. Nearly one out of four "on-the-job" accidents involve these parts of the body. To help reduce these problems it is important for employees to learn about the most common hazards to these areas of the body.

• Physiology of the hand, wrist and fingers.
• Identification of common hazards.
• Proper work procedures.
• Tool use and maintenance.
• Using personal protective equipment.
• Injuries and first aid.
• and more.
