Welcome to Safeti’s free workplace Manual Handling training video UK & Ireland, hosted by Richard Collins CMIOSH.

With our online Manual Handling Training Course (theory), we aim to ensure that employees understand the fundamentals of safe Manual Handling in the workplace.

Workplace manual handling occurs β€˜when a person is supporting or transporting a load by hand or by using bodily force’.

To avoid manual handling or musculo-skeletal injuries, performing a sufficient manual handling training and applying a few simple manual handling principles can help reduce risk.

Watch our Manual Handling training video to learn more!

The HSE (GB) estimates that 8.9 Million working days were lost due to these MSK disorders.

Manual handling, awkward or tiring positions and keyboard work (DSE) or repetitive action are regarded as the key causes of work-related musculoskeletal disorders.

As you can see, this is a significant and avoidable cost to both individuals and businesses.

What is Manual Handling?

In Ireland, Manual handling injuries are the most common workplace injury (see image), with over 30% physical injuries relating to the back, arm or shoulders.

For GB, in the 2020/21 business year, there were approximately 470,000 (yes, ~0.5 Million!) work-related musculoskeletal (MSK) disorder cases. 81% of these were related to the upper limbs, neck or back.

The stark figures above are the reason why manual handling training is important for businesses.

Our Workplace Manual Handling training video will help your employees to get to grips with how to lift and carry safely during their working day.

Gabriel was abused, beaten and tortured for months before he died.
