For some jobs,  repetitive motion is common throughout the day.  Certain types of jobs have a higher degree of possible injury based on the actual repetitive task being conducted.

For example,  workers on a meat producer line will have to work with a sharp knife and trim the beef quickly and keep up with the pace of the assembly line.  The repetitive nature of the work can cause stress in the arms and hands.  More problems can arise because  the repetitive nature of the work can lead to missteps and accidents.  Many workers are hurt this way each year when they accidently cut into themselves with the sharp knives as a result of losing focus because of the constant repetitive motion.

Crane accidents occur for a variety of reasons.  Cranes have to lift extremely heavy loads and raise these loads very high above the ground.  This can put a tremendous amount of stress on the equipment during this process.  In many cases,  if a crane accident occurs,  the crane was not properly maintained.  Proper maintenance is important.

If a crane malfunction occurs,  a serious accident can follow.  The load that the crane is holding could fall to the ground, injuring those below.  The crane itself could topple over landing on a building or  near the work site potentially injuring workers. Because of this,  crane safety must be a very high priority.
