Annual Moving and Handling Update

Back problems account for one-third of all workers' absence in the UK. Training your staff to handle objects and people safely can reduce the risk of injury for your employees, and keep your company’s costs down in the long run.

This training program covers all the practical and theoretical requirements of EC Regulations and deals specifically with Moving & Handling within the working environment. There is a mixture of theory and practical instruction throughout the training. Health Surveillance Services recommend this type of training as part of an annual update training programme.

The training is usually run over 2 hours however this can be bespoke to your company requirements.
