Table of jobs in connection with occupational injury frequency.
Laste- og lossearbeider, bilmedhjelper.
I know that Per provided a good answer a short while ago concerning people who deal with newly-transported cars that have to have wax, etc. removed ready for display/sale, but I don't know whether it was the same or a similar word because I can find no trace of it. So, apologies if this has been asked before (I'm sure I put it for inclusion in the glossary, but nothing concerning this comes up under bil or car Eng-Nor).
I'm looking for the title of someone who does said job.
TIA

Van delivery assistant


Explanation:
Jeg tror denne definisjonen skulle være dekkende:
"Van delivery assistants help van drivers to load and unload goods from vans. Before the journey, they help to secure goods to avoid them getting damaged. During the journey, they read road maps and help the driver find the correct delivery address"
