Manual Handling Risk Assessment
Overview
Manual handling occurs as a part of many work activities and with productivity demands increasing in many sectors, these
jobs hold the potential for musculoskeletal disorders.
Many employers are now realising the benefits of handling-specific risk assessment skills, not only in order to fulfil their
legal obligations but also to take a proactive approach to improve the efficiency and health of their employees where
handling occurs.
This course is designed for those with little or no previous health and safety or risk assessment experience. On completion
of the course delegates will have a good working knowledge of the theory and practice of carrying out effective handling risk
assessments as required by the Manual Handling Operations Regulations - with identification of effective risk controls as the
key output.
The presenters are all experienced Ergonomists who have practical experience of implementing the Manual Handling
Operations Regulations within a wide range of companies and organisations.
The course is part of the Professional Development Programme offered by the Institution for Occupational Safety & Health
(IOSH), the lead professional body for safety in Europe. Delegates must meet the attainment levels set by IOSH in order to
pass the course (30 minute exam).

On Human Applications Ltd

Provider description
Human Applications is based in Loughborough, in the East Midlands of England. We work primarily in the UK, but also all over the world - in Europe, the US, Africa and the Far East. We are a successful consultancy and training group dedicated to providing effective business solutions through the practical 'real-world' application of Business Risk Management, Ergonomics/Human Factors and Health and Safety skills. Our consultancy and training staff are all professionally qualified practitioners, with extensive practical field experience. Our skills cover a wide range of ergonomics, human factors and safety-related subject areas and we can quickly put together a wider team to offer that elusive 'one-stop solution'.
Providing 'Real World' Solutions

We are committed to ensuring the provision not only of technical expertise in our consultancy and training activities, but also of business acumen - the provision of practical, timely, and demonstrably cost-effective business solutions. Since we understand and have vast experience of the practical realities of doing effective business risk ergonomics and health and safety in companies, we also understand the kinds of problems our clients face in dealing with these concerns. No 'academic' solutions here, but sound business advice and an understanding of the need to place our proposed solutions in a day to day business context.
Working with Business, Industry and the Public Sector

Human Applications work with a wide variety of clients in both the public and private sectors. We work in engineering, commerce, healthcare, local government, publishing, the leisure industry, the utilities, the emergency services, the defence industry and in telecommunications - to name but a few. Of course we recognise that a client list means nothing unless those clients are satisfied with the work we've done. We are justifiably proud of our work and particularly of our record of repeat business - so we're always happy to put prospective clients in touch with relevant past or current contacts. Far better to hear what they think about us and our work, than to hear it from us!
