They can also affect truck drivers\u2019 back muscles. When muscles are constantly in the same position, day in and day out, they start to get fatigued. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">                              <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Operating a big rig also ensures that individuals are in a\nprone position in their cab many hours throughout the day. This could create\nchronic back pain problems, an inability to work, and a potential loss of\nincome. In fact, back pain is one of the leading causes of people missing work\nin America. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Back Pain in the Spotlight<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Did you know that nearly <a href=\"https:\/\/hpi.georgetown.edu\/backpain\/#:~:text=Nearly%2065%20million%20Americans%20report,condition%20in%20the%20United%20States.\">65\nmillion Americans<\/a> reported a recent episode of back pain? Even worse, at\nleast 8% of Americans report persistent or chronic back pain. Some estimated\nput that number even higher, positing that around 31 million Americans\nexperience low back pain at any given time. And since one out of every five\ncases of acute back pain turns into recurring back pain, this is a serious\nproblem for truck drivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Given the job duties truck drivers must undertake during\ntheir day, it should be no surprise that back pain is an issue truck drivers\ndeal with on a regular basis. Many studies have demonstrated a link between\nspending long hours behind the wheel and suffering from back pain. And this\nlink seems to be higher than back pain in the average population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the cause of consistent back pain is not clearly\nidentified in many patients who suffer from it, many people have several common\nfactors that connect these individuals together. Addressing these factors\nindividually can help improve people\u2019s quality of life and reduce the risk of\nchronic back pain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These factors include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A sedentary lifestyle<\/li><li>A high BMI<\/li><li>Having poor posture<\/li><li>Lack of exercise or significant movement for\nlong periods of time<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fact is, back pain can be debilitating for people in\njust about any job, but for a truck driver, it could mean they can\u2019t take a\njob. Even worse, these factors are all too common among truck drivers.\nFortunately, though it can seem like a challenge, trucking companies can take\nsteps to mitigate back pain for their truck drivers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Top Tips to Combat Back Pain<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the best ways to achieve a desired result is through\neducation. Education is key in situations where back pain is prevalent. Truck\ndrivers should be made well aware of what the common causes of back pain are\nand be given techniques and strategies to mitigate it. Do you have a policy in\nplace to ensure your truck drivers know what to do to keep back pain at bay?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Smart <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quicktransportsolutions.com\/carrier\/usa-trucking-companies.php\">trucking\ncompanies<\/a> utilize known tools to assist them in this endeavor. Whether it\nbe through videos on a company web portal, through a smartphone app, or even a\npolicy handbook, ensure you have something in place to educate your truck\ndrivers on how to best avoid, mitigate, or treat back pain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Encourage your truck drivers to exercise. You need to have a\nlong-term vision and a set policy in place to provide truck drivers with what\nthey need to get some exercise. Light exercises and stretches go a long away,\nwhether before, during or after they get behind the wheel. Stretching and\nexercising also helps increase blood flow and raises alertness levels,\nimportant for when they are behind the wheel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Suggest that your truck drivers take walks and stay active\nwhen they are parked for a break or even just after a meal. It is important to\nremember that eating large meals can cause a form of sedation. The last thing a\ntruck driver wants is to eat, then get behind the wheel and potentially fall\nasleep. It may be prudent to invest in fitness devices such as resistance bands\nor even fitness watches, great motivational prizes for top truck drivers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>It\u2019s All About Adjusting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Truck drivers need to be provided with a blueprint to\nproperly adjust their position in the cab. If the seat is not the right\ndistance from the steering wheel, one of the two should be adjusted. Truck\ndrivers should never have to hunch over or stretch just to reach the wheel and\noperate the rig. Make sure the wheel is always in comfortable reach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Drivers should also have a second look at their mirrors. When your mirrors give you a properly adjusted view of the road, you won\u2019t have to lean forward every time you want to make a lane change or check for vehicles in your blind spot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">                      <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">        <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It may also help to adjust the number of items in your\npocket. You will be surprised at the difference it will make on your back when\nyou are not sitting on a thick wallet or operating with heavy objects pulling\non your pockets. Empty pockets will ensure you don\u2019t have to deal with back\npain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, consider adjusting the vitamins and supplements you\ntake. There are many different natural remedies to back pain that do not\ninclude heavy pain killers. So, whether you use vitamins, minerals, or other\nsupplements, turn towards modern healthcare to help keep back pain at pay or\naddress the pain if it becomes a problem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Invest in Health for Your People<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If there is one thing truck drivers struggle with, it is the\nability to get quality food while they are on the job. Too many rest stops and\nrestaurants on the road offer little more than weak salads and lots of fried\nfood. It is up to the fleet to provide a counterbalance to all the unhealthy\nfare truck drivers are forced to eat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One way is to offer cab accessories that allow truck drivers\nto cook health food in their trucks. In combination with exercise and a healthy\ndiet, truck drivers will experience less chronic back pain. You may also want\nto have a look at the equipment your truck drivers are using. Are their seats\ncomfortable? If you are running older rigs, you may want to offer upgrades to\nthe seating in your trucks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may also want to consider offering a discount or\nupgrading sleeper matrasses in the cab. If you decide to skimp on money and buy\na cheap sleeper mattress for you or your drivers, it may not provide the\nsupport required to prevent back pain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether it be better cushions or advanced lumbar or back\nsupports to help ensure better posture, truck drivers not only appreciate these\nupgrades, they help eliminate back pain as well. And they help absorb some of\nthe constant vibrations truck drivers endure as they are driving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also want to return to the topic of education. Make sure\nyou teach your truck drivers to change positions on occasion when driving so\nthat their muscles do not become stiff from sitting in the same position. Stiff\nmuscles are often a precursor to back pain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Warm-ups Are Key to Back Pain Prevention<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We talk a lot about culture within a trucking company, and\nthat\u2019s because it is important. A trucking company\u2019s culture drive so much of\nwhat it does and how successful it is. And culture is just as important to\npreventing back pain and promoting a healthy workforce. This is where you come\nin. It is important that fleet managers develop a culture that encourages truck\ndrivers to do warm-up exercises. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Smart trucking companies gamify warm-up activities, offering\nincentives to get their truck drivers to participate. Warm-ups are important\nbecause they reduce the risk of developing an injury from every-day activities.\nAnd because it is so easy for truck drivers to lead a sedentary lifestyle,\nwarm-ups help in many different facets of life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is important to watch for musculoskeletal imbalances in either you or your drivers. You can notice whether they are creeping in by watching for tightness in different muscle groups, from your hips to your hamstrings, the back of your thighs, your chest and shoulder muscles, and lower back. If you feel tightness in your glutes, back, or neck muscles, this could be a precursor to back pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">                      <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">        <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the end, trucking companies must be constantly aware of\nthe health of their truckers. And with back pain being a constant battle for so\nmany of them, it is a fleet manager\u2019s responsibility to address back pain\nbefore it becomes an issue. Is that something your fleet is doing?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It turns out that repetitive stress injuries aren\u2019t just for workers in factories.
