This is an essential course for any and all staff and volunteers who handle objects in the workplace.

This half-day training course will cover:

manual handling risk factors and how injuries can happen

how to use mechanical aids

how to carry out safe manual handling, including good handling techniques

systems of work relevant to the worker’s tasks and environment

practical work so the trainer can identify anything the trainee is not doing safely and put it right

Please note, we aim to keep our courses at affordable prices in order to provide training opportunities for those working and volunteering within the local not-for-profit sector of Bracknell Forest and Wokingham Borough.

This is thanks to ongoing funding from our Local Authorities, which means specific criteria must be applied to our attendees. If you are unsure whether you will be eligible to attend, please contact us (https://mailto:claire.page@involve.community/) before purchasing a ticket.
