Manual Handling of Load (MHL) is common to many job titles in the construction industry. It is one risk factor for many reported workers’ ill-health and disabilities. This study evaluated the possibility and impacts of Team-work Practice (TwP) in MHL. Ten (10) building construction sites in South-Western Nigeria involving 125 workers in 6 job titles, were involved with special focus on concrete labourers(ConL) group. Structured questionnaire was used to measure the level and impacts of TwP. Measurement of task variables was carried out among ConL to determine performance of workers under One–person lifting (OpL) and Two-persons Team Lifting (TpTL) methods
