Manual handling training

Manual handling training applies to most workplaces in the UK to some extent, whether people are engaged in heavy construction work or are working in an office environment. Health and Safety figures show there is little difference in the handling injury rate between manual and office workers. HSMC offers a short employee awareness course which can help employers reduce their risk levels, prevent injury and meet the legal obligations.
