Health & Safety - Lifting & Handling
Manual handling injuries are the main cause of lost working days in the UK. These injuries occur due to sprains and strains resulting from the incorrect lifting and movement of objects. In accordance with the Health and Safety at Work Act (1974) and subsequent Regulations, it is the responsibility of all employers to provide employees with sufficient information and training on manual handling. Employees undertake Moving and Handling training to ensure you are compliant with the regulations and to minimise the costs you incur from work-related lifting injuries.
By training an employee you have an effective way of ensuring that you have taken the necessary due diligence to ensure your staff are adequately trained.
