In the United States, there are no universal laws or restrictions limiting the amount of weight that a worker can lift, regardless of the worker's gender. However, federal standards exist that employ a number of factors in computing the maximum weight that a worker can safely lift. These standards suggest a weight limit of 51 lbs. to be lifted with two hands, under ideal conditions, for both men and women.
The recommended maximum weight limit should be adjusted depending on how the load is being lifted, how close to the body they are held, and how high or how low the weights are to be lifted. For example, the guidelines suggest that men should be able to safely carry a load of 25kg if held close to the body at around waist height. However, the maximum weight to lift at arms length and above shoulder height are reduced to 5kg.
