Toma menos de cinco minutos completar la rutina de estiramiento y revisar una caja de herramientas diaria para revisar los riesgos del d&iacute;a. Estos cortos cinco minutos re&uacute;nen a los trabajadores y los ayudan a concentrarse en el trabajo y a dejar a un lado las preocupaciones de casa. Los estiramientos refuerzan y estiran los m&uacute;sculos para evitar las lesiones en el lugar de trabajo y la caja de herramientas les recuerda a los trabajadores los peligros presentes en el d&iacute;a que les espera.<\/p>\n<p>A continuaci&oacute;n le presentamos dos testimonios de trabajadores y su opini&oacute;n sobre los estiramientos diarios:<\/p>\n<p>Adam Boyle: &#8220;Disfruto los calentamientos ya que relajan nuestros m&uacute;sculos y hacen que la sangre circule. Adem&aacute;s nos dan la oportunidad de actuar en equipo&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew Snow: &#8220;Espero ansiosamente los calentamientos ya que son una verdadera llamada de atenci&oacute;n, relajan los m&uacute;sculos e incrementan el flujo sangu&iacute;neo.
