What are the risk factors of Hotel housekeeping, you ask? As you may already know, a hotel housekeeper changes his or her body position every three seconds (or so) while cleaning a room. The main risk factors for repetitive motion injuries (RMIs) in housekeeping are the following: Heavy physical workload and excessive bodily motions; and forceful upper limb motions in awkward positions. Physical workload that puts tension in your muscles, bones and joints as well as excessive bodily motions are a high risk for back injuries. In which case, certain ailments would gradually arise over time when such behavior is not mended or corrected after quite some time. Forceful motion of your upper limbs in awkward positions poses a high risk for neck or shoulder and arm injuries. It may generally feel like sore or aching muscles at the start but it could potentially put a toll in your body that it may need more than resting in order to better your health condition.
