Manual Handling courses are
suitable for anyone whose work involves lifting or moving loads. The Manual
Handling Operations Regulations 1992 require all employers to carry out training
for staff who lift or move loads. Manual Handling courses help you comply with
this legislation.
Manual Handling courses
last three hours and are suitable for staff training on your premises. We also
run courses open to individuals at our training rooms.
All teaching materials are
provided by us. A certificate of attendance is awarded to each candidate.
The cost of an
individual place on a course at our training rooms is £105.00 each
including VAT. See dates here
A course for up to
twelve persons on your own premises is £550.00 including VAT. Please
contact us to arrange times and dates.
