Some of the risk factors for their job will include repetitive motions, static postures, and reaching above the shoulder.

Their main hazard but not limited to will be their back and hands, after that some other hazards will include eye, foot, body, fall and noise hazards when going out on the shop floor. Along with the body hazards, some hazards that come from the job will be improper bending/twisting, tripping over the product/material when on the shop floor and staring at a computer screen for too long.
