Physical Demands and Environmental Conditions

Cashier

Physical Demands and Environmental Conditions are components of Worker Characteristics. Physical Demands analysis is a systematic way of describing the physical activities that a job requires. It is concerned only with the physical demands of the job; it is not concerned with the physical capacity of the worker. Environmental Conditions are the surroundings in which a job is performed. To be considered present, an Environmental Condition must be specific and related to the job.

Each position is performed as a constant route in the job function or is occasionally performed. A further definition of each physical demand and/or environmental condition with the examples can be found in the “Handbook for Job Analysis”: put out by the Department of Labor.

Constant-LIGHT WORK

Exerting up to 20 pounds of force occasionally, or up to 10 pounds of force frequently, or a negligible amount of force constantly to move objects. Physical demand requirements are in excess of those for Sedentary Work. Even though the weight lifted may be only a negligible amount, a job should be rated Light Work: (1) when it requires walking or standing to a significant degree; or (2) when it requires sitting most of the time but entails pushing or pulling of arm or leg controls; or (3) when the job requires working at a production rate pace entailing the constant pushing or pulling of materials even though the weight of those materials is negligible. Also, may include the following; climbing, stooping, kneeling, crouching, crawling, reaching, handling, fingering, feeling, talking, hearing, near acuity and depth perception, accommodation, color vision and field of vision. Environmental condition factors may include wet and/or humid, noise intensity level of moderate.

Occasional-MEDIUM WORK
