Your answer is B true because when you are using things manually the tool might be to heavy for a man to carry. Which adds more weight so the person might drop it

Your answer is B.

The statement that manual handling of materials accounts for the primary source of injury in the workplace is true. Manual handling includes lifting, pushing, pulling, bending . these activities are the most common reason for injury when not done properly and with the proper equipment and safe clothing.
