Question:

You need to move a desktop computer which is on the floor, underneath the desk, from one office location to another. What are the TWO personal safety procedures that you should follow?

A Bend at the knees and lift with your legs.
explanation

Always keep in mind a few key procedures before transferring equipment to ensure your personal safety. First, make sure that the equipment is unplugged. Nothing is worse (and perhaps more dangerous) than being yanked while still being tethered. Remove any loose jewelry, and secure long hair or neckties. Use your legs, not your back, to lift. When picking something up, bend at the knees, not at the waist.
