LIFTING - PUSHING - PULLING - LOWERING

Our Manual Handling courses are conducted in accordance with The Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992, amended 2002.


The course is designed to raise awareness of manual handling issues. Participants are taught correct posture and lifting techniques to enable manual handling tasks to be conducted without injury.

Each basic course has a 1 day duration with a maximum of 12 participants, 6 accommodated in a morning session and 6 accommodated in an afternoon session.

We can train your company individuals as Manual Handling Instructors to deliver manual handling training in-house. This is a 3 day course which is normally conducted at our training centre but can be arranged on-site, subject to arrangement.


The HSE have published a short guide to Manual Handling which can be downloaded as a PDF here.
