Manual Handling

We offer manual handling training at different levels; this training course will provide trainees with guidance on the correct lifting procedure and some handy hints on the do’s and don’ts of manual handling. A key component of these workshops is behaviour based through the promotion of personal responsibility for back care. This is designed to motivate the participants to undertake a positive change in their manual handling behaviour i.e. be motivated to implement suitable strategies to help prevent and manage musculoskeletal problems.
