Handling and hanging drywall sheets can result in serious injuries for workers if proper precautions are not taken. NIOSH notes that workers who handle drywall sheets have a high risk of overexertion and fall injuries. Because drywall sheets are heavy, injuries can include strains, sprains, tears and back pain. Additionally, installers and carpenters can suffer falls as a result of losing their balance when carrying, lifting or holding drywall sheets.
