Fourth, an explanation for the statistical differences in the age-stratified analyses might be due to statistical power, where more workers <50 years are lifting for 1⁄2 and 3⁄4 of the workday than workers ≥50 years, and the lower CI is close to being statistically significant among workers <50 years lifting 3⁄4 of the workday.
