About this course
On this Manual Handling Train the Trainer course, learners will understand the correct techniques to use when lifting and moving inanimate objects, the safety of oneself and others whilst doing so and the legal requirements in the workplace. Learners will then be able to teach Manual Handling training to other members in the workplace, by learning different teaching methods and learning styles.
Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992 (MHOR) (as amended 2002) require employers to assess the risks to employees’ health involved in moving and handling objects at work and to remove or minimise these risks. Having a certified manual handling trainer on-site can help your organisation conform to this law.
This Manual Handling Train the Trainer course online is designed for supervisors, managers, safety advisors or anyone who has a responsibility to deliver manual handling training to the workforce.
