I Asked Mr.Glass (I think that was his name) to come see me at my job( Which is repair.I think this is classified as containment) to check out this template that I have to carry up and down steps and into the floor of the boxes that have 5th wheels.(The laser booth suppose to cut them out)It weighs at least 35 pounds and is awkward as hell.The laser booth has been down at least 8 weeks and no one can seem to fix it .(go figure).Anyway he gets there and I ask him to try it for himself and he informs me he has a messed up back and cant carry it? ?How the hell do I get proper representation when the guy cant even do the job hes checkin out????Plus I have to do all the talkin hes to busy talkin to the sup. and the Co. rep.How is he our rep. ?Then to top matters off him and the co. rep. okays the job. ?This is bullshit.Dont you think so MR.KESSINGER????So now Im left to fight for myself.Which I will do.Im not carrying a bigass piece of steel around all night and going up and down steps .Also isnt there some kind of weight limit a person is required to carry? ?I hope Kess. or somebody gets back with me on this.Im at box line repair b-crew.PS Why cant anyone fix the laser booth?Dont we train our guys properly or what? ???Anyway I hope someone will come talk to me or give me a number of a person I can talk with.Thank you

Yes there are standards posted on the Ford web VOSS Standards also In North American Construction Spec's standard number 14500 ?? Not sure exact number would need a Ford Intranet to look it up... Randy Houston should be able to give it to you. Randy starts at 11 pm. It used to be repetitive lifting task of like 22 or 25 lbs required a lift assist device e.g. balancer, monorail etc
There is no way you should be going up and steps with a load... Need to see buy off on this. Randy is 5220.
But don't expect one rep to contradict another, better talk to a couple and try to get them to understand the issues. hint
