| Tiivistelmä: | A study was conducted to determine whether supermarket cashiers are exposed to increased biomechanical stress due to the use of checker unload workstations. The results indicate that specifically the task of removing groceries directly from the cart for scanning increases the frequency of long reaches, awkward shoulder postures, and lifts. Workstation modifications and alternative work practices may reduce the frequencies of awkward postures and stressful motions associated with the checkstand design. |
