Manual handling covers a wide range of workplace activities and repetitive tasks.
Many jobs involve some form of manual handling, but not all manual handling is hazardous or involves the risk of an injury.
Every organisation has responsibilities regarding the correct manual handling procedures, to prevent injury (including MSD) in the workplace. Training in this area teaches staff how to prevent injuries as a result of repetitive tasks and how to identify signs of injury.
Our Manual Handling course is designed to help participants identify hazardous manual handling tasks, prevent injuries, and understand the responsibilities of both employers and employees in minimising workplace risks. The course covers proper techniques for lifting, carrying, and moving objects to reduce the likelihood of injury and maintain a safe working environment. Through interactive scenarios and practical guidance, this course promotes effective manual handling practices to safeguard the health and well-being of everyone in the workplace.
