Manual Handling Training Course

Description

Lifting or pushing something may seem easy—until it causes an injury. In the UK, manual handling causes about 20% of workplace injuries, including strains, sprains, back pain, and other musculoskeletal problems. That’s why our CPD-accredited Manual Handling Training Course, which is made by health and safety experts, stands out. 

It follows the Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992 and gives the necessary information and training to understand the risks of manual handling.
