Who it's for

Anyone who moves things at work

Your team

Anyone who lifts, lowers, carries, pushes or pulls loads as part of the job. A load is anything that needs moving: boxes, materials, equipment or kit.

You, the employer

You need to avoid manual handling where you can, assess the risks where you can't, and make sure your staff are trained to do it safely. This course covers the training part.
