Employer responsibilities

As an employer, you must protect your workers from the risk of injury and ill health from hazardous manual handling tasks in the workplace. This training course in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire or at your own site will help you do that. 

What's the problem?

Manual handling injuries are part of a wider group of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). The term ‘musculoskeletal disorders’ includes injuries and conditions that can cause pain to the back, joints and limbs. For the latest statistics, visit the HSE website. Manual handling risks can be found across all kinds of workplaces – on farms and building sites, in factories, offices, warehouses, hospitals and while making deliveries. Heavy manual labour, repetitive handling, awkward postures and previous or existing injuries or conditions are all risk factors for developing MSDs. Work may also make worse an injury which was not caused at work, such as a sports injury.
