Manual Handling
NQTS will assess various departments of the workplace to assess manual tasks from a Risk Assessment perspective and provide ideas on solutions to control identified hazards. NQTS provide feedback via presentations to supervisors or meetings to discuss and assist with control implementation.
Our Manual Handling Training Packages are designed specifically for each workplace and can include the following components:
Theory – discussion on the theory behind correct lifting and the anatomy of the spine and practice of manual handling skills in a “classroom” situation.
Practical – includes teaching correct techniques to workers such as pushing / pulling; lifting, moving, grasping, handling and climbing.
Competency – The second part of the training applies the manual handling techniques in the worker’s real working environment and uses the objects and tools already positioned there. During this part of the training, each individual is assessed for their ability to perform each activity relevant to their work using safe manual handling techniques.
