Industrial technicians stack boxes high and load them onto trucks.
It puts a lot of strain on the body, such as having to move a box weighing 10 kg.

The Military Manpower Administration said it would review measures such as restrictions on the allocation of industrial technical personnel to companies after investigating the facts.
