The demands of a job can include: Basic physical demands (lifting, carrying, pushing & pulling), mobility requirements (walking & climbing), sensory and perceptual demands (hearing & vision), vocational requirements and environmental conditions (exposure to heat, cold, & vibrations). Each demand is considered separately and in combination with job components.
