Manual handling questions and answers
Everyone in the workplace should be required to take manual handling training to help reduce the risk of injury. This includes employers, supervisors, managers, staff, volunteers and site visitors.
Over a third of all work related injuries are from manual handling. Back injuries are the biggest cause of staff absence in the UK and yet most are completely preventable.
Manual handling training involves educating workers in the proper techniques for lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, holding and carrying objects. It covers everything your employees need to know about manoeuvring loads safely.
Manual handling training is a legal requirement in any situation where your staff are required to do any lifting, lowering, pulling or pushing that involves any level of risk. Most work environments require staff to carry out some form of manual handling whether it’s putting boxes on a shelf, painting a wall, gardening, cleaning, writing or typing.
At a minimum, staff should receive training when they first join an organisation, but HSE recommends that training should be refreshed at least once a year.
