Overview
Poor manual handling causes more than a third of all over-three-day injuries and costs industry an estimated 12.3 million working days per year – on average each sufferer takes about 20 days off in a 12 month period. A major contributing factor is the lack of proper training!

Benefits
This Manual Handling Instructor Course will enable organisations to undertake their own Manual Handling training in-house thereby reducing the costs associated with the purchase of regular external training providers. The course will be of benefit to organisations with a large number of employees involved in manual handling operations on a regular basis.
