ISO 11228-2:2007给出了全身推拉的建议极限。它提供了对手动推拉重要风险因素评估的指导，允许对工作人口的健康风险进行评估。这些建议适用于健康的成年工作人口，并为其中大多数人提供合理的保护。这些指南基于推挽任务的实验研究，以及肌肉骨骼负荷、不适/疼痛和耐力/疲劳的相关水平。 ISO 11228-2:2007中定义的推拉仅限于以下情况:全身用力（即站立/行走时）；由一个人执行的行为；双手施加的力；用于移动或约束物体的力；以平稳且可控的方式施加的力；在不使用外部支撑的情况下施加的力； 施加在操作员前方物体上的力；以直立姿势（非坐姿）施加的力。 ISO 11228-2:2007旨在为设计师、雇主、雇员和其他参与设计或重新设计工作、任务、产品和工作组织的人员提供信息。

ISO 11228-2:2007 gives the recommended limits for whole-body pushing and pulling. It provides guidance on the assessment of risk factors considered important to manual pushing and pulling, allowing the health risks for the working population to be evaluated. The recommendations apply to the healthy adult working population and provide reasonable protection to the majority of this population. These guidelines are based on experimental studies of push-pull tasks and associated levels of musculoskeletal loading, discomfort/pain, and endurance/fatigue. Pushing and pulling, as defined in ISO 11228-2:2007, is restricted to the following: whole-body force exertions (i.e. while standing/walking); actions performed by one person; forces applied by two hands; forces used to move or restrain an object; forces applied in a smooth and controlled way; forces applied without the use of external support(s); forces applied on objects located in front of the operator; forces applied in an upright position (not sitting). ISO 11228-2:2007 is intended to provide information for designers, employers, employees and others involved in the design or redesign of work, tasks, products and work organization.
