 An industrial safety instructor in Long Beach, 
California, Jeff Davis teaches important safety 
guidelines to professionals in the petrochemical 
industry. With teaching certifications through both the 
Department of Transportation and the Occupational 
Safety and Health Administration, Jeff Davis is highly 
knowledgeable and well-qualified in his field. 
Among the many goals of an industrial safety 
professional is to instruct employees regarding the 
best practices to reduce the risk of developing 
musculoskeletal disorders, which involve the nerves, 
tendons, and muscles of the body.
 Commonly affected areas include the 
upper and lower back, as well as the legs 
and arms. While these types of workplace 
disorders and injuries are particularly 
common among individuals who work in 
such areas as warehousing, construction, 
and health care, they can also occur in 
many other industries. In fact, any job that 
involves lifting heavy items, bending, 
performing repetitive actions, or pushing 
and pulling objects can place an 
employee at risk.
 In order to protect employees from these 
types of disorders and injuries, good 
workplace safety training is of the utmost 
importance. Additionally, management 
should actively look for potential problems 
that may lead to injuries, and should involve 
workers in the process of identifying hazards 
and risks in the workplace setting. By 
encouraging good communication and 
reporting, companies can improve the way 
that they handle hazards and reduce the 
likelihood of serious injuries.
