If deemed necessary by a company-specific risk assessment, manual handling training may be required to mitigate risk.

Learning Outcomes:

This course will help you to understand the reasons for doing a job in a way that allows for the least amount of risk. Participants will learn to recognize the risks involved and decide the best way to complete various tasks. This will enable participants to obtain the knowledge to complete unavoidable manual handling activities in the correct manner.

This Course is Designed For:

All staff that engages in manual handling activities during their working day. These employees are exposed to situations where the risks cannot be eliminated or reduced sufficiently.
