Manual Handling Online Course
Manual handling, or more precisely, incorrect manual handling, stands as one of the most common causes of injury in the workplace. In an effort to address manual handling issues, the Manual Handling Operations Regulations were introduced.
These regulations outline duties for both employees and employers. They establish a general requirement that employees must receive training in proper manual handling techniques, including the use of any equipment provided by their employer for safe load handling.
This course provides a detailed explanation of what manual handling entails, delves into the regulations and legislation that pertain to manual handling tasks, and covers safe handling methods and the cultivation of good habits in manual handling practices. The course concludes by introducing practical solutions and the utilization of mechanical aids.
It is important to note that this course serves as an awareness tool only. For individuals whose responsibilities involve manual handling, additional practical training is necessary. Feel free to reach out to us to arrange further training.
