The principal objective of the proposed research is "to evaluate whether the knowledge of an individual's physiological endurance and strength can predict the risk of later injury and illness when the individual is placed on jobs requiring high frequency lifting tasks". A lifting stress index (LSI) based on both endurance and strength will be developed to meet this objective. The LSI is defined in this study as the ratio of lifting task demands (LID) and worker lifting ability (WLA). WLA will be determined through a set of predictive models that will be developed in the principal investigator's laboratory, at the University of Miami, using a large sample of male industrial workers. LTD, which will be collected in a field study conducted by Western Michigan University from companies, will be described in terms of task variables, worker characteristics, and injury statistics. A knowledge-based system will be developed using the information collected from the laboratory study and participating companies. This system can be used by companies in the design or redesign of continuous high frequency lifting tasks.

拟议研究的主要目标是“评估 是否了解个人的生理耐力 力量可以预测后来受伤和疾病的风险 个人被置于需要高频提升的工作中 任务”。基于耐力和 将开发实力以满足这一目标。 LSI是 在本研究中定义为提升任务要求的比率（LID） 和工人提升能力（WLA）。 WLA将通过 一组将在本金中开发的预测模型 迈阿密大学的调查员实验室，使用 大量男性工业工人样本。 有限公司，这将是 在西密歇根大学进行的一项现场研究中收集 来自公司的，将根据任务变量来描述 工人特征和伤害统计。 将使用信息开发基于知识的系统 从实验室研究和参与公司收集。 该系统可以由设计或重新设计的公司使用 连续高频提升任务。
