Manual Handling

Online Course • Learning Pool

About the CPD course

Manual handling; whereby one ‘transports or supports a load by hand; or by bodily force’ accounts for 24% of all reported workplace accidents – equating to some 909;000 lost working days each year. Both employer and staff have a duty to minimise the risk of injury. Our module serves as a comprehensive guide to good practice; including step-by-step instruction on performing lifts. We give examples of common injuries and how they’re caused; and identify potential risks to staff. A short assessment section will double-check that the learner has understood all key areas. The examples in the module focus on an office environment but can be applied to most workplace settings.
