Manual Handling Courses

We are a training company located in Medway, specialising in health and safety. Recognising the significance of manual handling, which encompasses the movement and management of various objects in daily life, we offer tailored courses to address its importance.

While traditional candidates for manual handling training typically include individuals handling heavy loads like warehouse workers, labourers, porters, and groundsmen, it's crucial to acknowledge that office workers, despite primarily working at desks, are also susceptible to manual handling injuries. To mitigate these risks both in and out of the workplace, we provide a range of manual handling courses:

• Basic Manual Handling: Introduces manual handling techniques to minimise the risk of injury.
• Manual Handling for Management and Risk Assessors: Includes manual handling risk assessments and empowers management to train new staff until formal training is provided.
• Manual Handling Train the Trainer: Equips individuals to become manual handling instructors.

Our manual handling courses can be accredited by organisations such as the CIEH or ITSSAR, ensuring compliance with current HSE regulations.

Benefits of manual handling training include enhancing individuals' understanding of how their body functions in handling loads, enabling them to make informed decisions and apply appropriate techniques to prevent accidents and injuries.

Statistics reveal the prevalence and impact of manual handling injuries, emphasising the importance of proactive training initiatives. Our courses are designed to address these challenges directly, offering practical solutions for workplace safety.

Courses are conducted on-site, allowing delegates to apply the training directly to their work environment. We serve areas including Kent, London, Essex, Sussex, and surrounding counties in the Southeast.
