Manual Handling

Safely handling and lifting loads is crucial to prevent injuries for yourself and your colleagues. Understanding your responsibilities and taking the necessary steps are vital to maintaining a safe environment.

It covers the types of injuries that can result from lifting, stacking, pushing, and pulling, providing guidelines on how to perform these activities safely.

It also explores the risks associated with lifting using the TILEO method, identifies potential manual handling risks, and instructs on conducting safe team lifts. Additionally, it discusses how mechanical aids can contribute to safe lifting practices.

    Just completed my NRSWA supervisor course at MPTT with Mark as the tutor. I found Mark very helpful and knowledgeable (even for a Leeds fan) about everything relating to the training course and he provided excellent guidance. Big shout out also to his glamorous assistant Gina who showed impeccable time keeping. Overall a thoroughly enjoyable week made me feel at ease where as some courses can feel over intense. Thanks guys.
