Manual Handling Instructors and Assessors
Aims
The course will show delegates how effective training and instruction can be used as part of a programme of
manual handling risk management. The course does not require prior experience of instruction or training,
advice will be given during the programme.
Delegates will be given a comprehensive reference pack which includes a review of the main legal
requirements and guidance on manual handling assessment and control.
