An ergonomic insert is disclosed that reduces the risk of low-back injury to workers in aerial buckets. A combination of an ergonomic insert, an aerial bucket and means for stabilizing said ergonomic insert within the aerial bucket is also disclosed. Finally, a method for using such an ergonomic insert is also disclosed. The ergonomic insert comprises a nominally non-deformable material having foot-receiving surfaces and capable of bearing a worker's weight. Various means for supporting the ergonomic insert in a vertical position are disclosed. The method for using the ergonomic insert comprises placing the ergonomic insert into the aerial bucket from above. The ergonomic insert is positioned between the worker and the work to be performed. The worker then places a foot on one of the foot receiving surfaces prior to or while performing the work.
