Manual Handling

At Compliplus, we are a group of highly skilled and experienced safety consultants who are passionate about health and safety consulting. Our primary goal is to make workplaces safer through innovative solutions for organisations. Our health & safety processes are designed to complement your existing structures, not create new ones.

The objective of this Manual Handling course is to give trainees an understanding of “safe manual handling” principles and be able to implement the processes and activities required by legislation to remove or reduce risks relating to manual handling in the workplace. Manual Handling is defined as:

“Any transporting or supporting of a load by one or more employees and includes lifting, putting down, pushing, pulling, carrying or moving a load, which, by reason of its characteristics or of unfavourable ergonomic conditions, – it involves risk, in particular the risk of back injury, to employees.”

Who Is the Manual Handling Course for?

Training in safe manual handling techniques should be provided to employees if deemed necessary by their assigned duties. In reality, most employees engage in manual handling to some degree as part of their normal work activities. As an employer, you are responsible for the health and welfare of your employees at work. It makes good business sense to protect your staff from the risk of injury by ensuring staff are trained in manual handling, mitigating potential liability in the case of a manual handling-related injury.
