Manual Handling Training

Learn the importance of good lifting and moving techniques, and how to avoid injury with our CPD certificated information-packed training.

This is a highly interactive course which allows delegates to gain ‘hands-on’ experience of safe manual handling under the supervision of our instructor.

You will learn different strategies and techniques to minimise risk such as using specialist equipment.

All delegates participate in a practical lifting session with one of our highly experienced trainers. This element of the course is crucial in developing good practice.

After successfully completing the training, each delegate will be awarded CPD certification and earn two CPD points.

In line with Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992, on completion of this course, you will understand how to use good posture and correct lifting techniques. This will enable you to reduce the risk of injury to yourself and to others in the workplace.

This course is for any employee whose work requires them to undertake manual handling tasks.

For instance, anyone who undertakes the lifting, putting down, pushing, pulling, carrying or moving any load by hand or by bodily force. In effect, any activity that requires an individual to lift, move or support a load will be classified as a manual handling task.

This course is not suitable for pregnant women or those suffering from an injury or condition which is likely to cause discomfort.
