This is the end of manually handling a mattress corner to get sheets on a bed.
12- 18 beds per day are changed on average in Australian hotels and accommodation.
30 - 90 minutes is allocated to room changes, and as the number of rooms and changes increase, that time can also increase due to fatigue.
The Australian national guidelines indicate that items weighing more than 16 kg without mechanical or other assistance, which may include team lifting and/or particular training for the task, significantly increase the risk of injury.
In our testing, the average domestic Queen mattress required 15 kg of force to lift the corner of the mattress.
According to Queensland workers' compensation statistics for 2021-22, the average payout for back injuries was approximately $18,000 for a back sprain or strain.
This is the initial figure available at the time of the report and doesn't include the cost of supporting rehab during recovery or a possible permanent injury compensation claim.
Making Bedezy available to every worker helps reduce workplace injury and lowers the risk of ongoing injury or conditions from changing sheets.
Bedezy helps reduce the risk of injury when workers must change sheets. The need for lifting, pulling, and pushing, which could cause injury to workers, is significantly reduced by using Bedezy.
Bedezy removes weight-bearing movements during sheet changes, allowing workers to stay more upright and use both hands to fit a sheet.
Using Bedezy also improves time efficiency while allowing more workers who were previously limited by the physical demands of this task to change sheets by removing the weight-bearing requirements.
