Manual Handling

They give a general requirement that employees must be trained to manually handle correctly including the use of any equipment their employer provides to handle loads safely. Training your employees with our online system will go a long way to giving them greater awareness of the dangers that poor manual handling poses, as well as covering safe handling techniques, practical solutions to manual handling issues and the use of mechanical aids.What you will learn / Modules
