Learners are introduced to the hazards and risks associated with manual handling, the controls available, and what to expect from a manual handling risk assessment. The course highlights manual handling issues and prepares delegates to look carefully at their own work activities and contribute to the development of safer methods and tasks, in co-operation with their managers and supervisors. The course includes an introduction to the lifting, carrying, pushing, and pulling activities. This course can be tailored to include client-specific issues.
Manual handling training is relevant across various industries and therefore anyone who is required to handle objects, equipment, or materials as part of their job may benefit from this training. The course is intended for any persons undertaking manual handling activities at work.
Under the manual handling regulations, if your workplace requires manual handling activities then it is essential that everyone receives the appropriate training. Any occupation or task that involves lifting, carrying, or moving objects has the potential for injury if proper techniques are not used.
