The worker is subject to outside environmental conditions: No effective protection from weather. The worker is subject to both environmental conditions: Activities occur inside and outside. The worker is subject to extreme cold: Temperatures typically below 32 degrees for periods of more than one hour. Consideration should be given to the effect of other environmental conditions such as wind and humidity. The worker is subject to noise: There is sufficient noise to cause the worker to shout in order to be heard above the ambient noise level. The worker is subject to vibration: Exposure to oscillating movements of the extremities or whole body. The worker is subject to hazards: Includes a variety of physical conditions, such as proximity to moving mechanical parts, moving vehicles. The worker is subject to oils: There is air and/or skin exposure to oils and other cutting fluids. The worker is required to wear a hard hat, safety glasses and reflective vest.

Physical Requirements

Light work:

Exerting up to 20 pounds of force occasionally, and/or up to 10 pounds of force frequently, and/or a negligible amount of force constantly to move objects. If the use of arm and/or leg controls requires exertion of forces greater than that for Sedentary Work and the worker sits most of the time, the job is rated for Light Work.

Balancing

: Maintaining body equilibrium to prevent falling when walking, standing or crouching on narrow, slippery or erratically moving surfaces. This factor is important if the amount and kind of balancing the amount and kind of balancing exceeds that needed for ordinary locomotion and maintenance of body equilibrium.

Stooping

: Bending body downward and forward by bending spine at the waist. This factor is important if it occurs to a considerable degree and requires full use of the lower extremities and back muscles

Kneeling

: Bending legs at knee to come to a rest on knee or knees.

Crouching

: Bending the body downward and forward by bending leg and spine.

Reaching

: Extending hand(s) and arm(s) in any direction.

Standing

: Remaining upright on the feet, particularly for sustained periods of time

Walking

: Moving about on foot to accomplish tasks, particularly for long distances or moving from one work site to another

Pushing

: Using upper extremities to press against something with steady force in order to thrust forward, downward or outward.

Pulling

: Using upper extremities to exert force in order to draw, drag, haul or tug objects in a sustained motion.

Lifting

: Raising objects from a lower to a higher position or moving objects horizontally from position to-position. This factor is important if it occurs to a considerable degree and requires the substantial use of the upper extremities and back muscles

Fingering

: Picking, pinching, typing or otherwise working, primarily with fingers rather than with whole hand or arm as in handling.

Grasping

: Applying pressure to an object with the fingers and palm

Feeling

: Perceiving attributes of objects, such as size, shape, temperature or texture by touching with skin, particularly that of fingertips.

Talking

: Expressing or exchanging ideas by means of the spoken word; those activities where detailed or important spoken instructions must be conveyed to other workers accurately, loudly, or quickly
