The phrases:
1. Migrant farmworkers in Canada have become increasingly essential to the survival of agricultura
And
2. With the new pathway for seasonal migrant workers 757 to become permanent residents in Canada, the farmworkers will obtain their right to 758 workplace health and safety similar to Canadian workers.
placed in conclusions do not correspond. Since concluding means deducing something after having considered its circumstances and in both cases they are two speculations that correspond to discussion.

Reviewer 3 Report
The authors explain incompletely the need to wear an escheat for workers in the category, but without arguing all the implications listed above.
The introduction is too long and lacks substance. I recommend shortening the introduction and arguing based on previous studies the need to wear an exoskeleton and its benefits in each individual case.
150-151 ”The study protocols were approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the École 150 de technologie supérieure, but there are no data related to the number and date of protocol approval” Please submit the document showing the number and date of the protocol and the committee approval.
The authors did not evaluate the participants objectively from a medical point of view in which the exclusion criteria were clear such as low back pain, lumbar or cervical disc herniations, old trauma or other conditions.
It is not clear how the statistical part was done or how they arrived at the data in Figure 4.
