Manual handling training provides employees with the knowledge and skills needed to safely lift, carry, push, pull, and move loads in the workplace. By understanding correct handling techniques, workers can reduce the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), including back injuries, strains, sprains, and other work-related injuries. Training also helps employees recognise potential hazards, assess the risks associated with manual handling tasks, and implement appropriate control measures to minimise the likelihood of accidents occurring.
