The impact of 24 weeks of back-support exoskeleton use on biomechanics, workload, and discomfort in logistics: a randomized controlled trial

Introduction: Manual order picking in warehouse logistics involves repetitive lifting, awkward postures, and substantial physical exertion, contributing to a high prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). Occupational exoskeletons, such as passive back-supporting devices, induce [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
