Note the parameters (dimensions) you observe from the photos. What you observe from the photos does not need to be exact, they can be approximate values. Note the valued you look up from the tables. Find the corresponding maximum acceptable weight (MAW). Comment on the relative risk of the task comparing actual weight versus the MAW a) Worker picks up 40kg boxes with dimensions 75x75x30cm from a pallet on the floor about 4 times a day and places them on a 55cm high rack b) Worker carries two boxes (each 10kg) with dimensions 60x25x40cm to a distance of 12m two at a time about 15 times an hour
