About this course

This course is there to help people avoid getting injured in the first place.

Everyone who does manual handling of some sort - and as manual handling is 'any activity that includes lifting or putting down, pulling or pushing, carrying, supporting or moving an object, person or animal, that is everyone!

However, some jobs pose higher risks, such as those moving beer barrels, work in warehouses or storage of some kind, those who work in factories, etc - the list goes on.

This course is run in a fun, engaging and interactive way. It is also a fully accredited, Ofqual regulated qualification.
