Manual Handling Basic (1 Day)

About Course

Our Manual Handling Training is designed to give employees the essential knowledge and practical skills needed to carry out everyday tasks safely and efficiently. Focused on reducing the risk of injury, the course combines clear guidance with hands-on learning to build confidence and promote safer behaviours in the workplace.

Aligned with Inspire Safety’s vision of delivering tailored, high-quality solutions, this training is shaped around the specific needs of your organisation. We take a collaborative approach—working closely with participants to understand real tasks, encourage open communication, and build practical, lasting improvements.

Learners will gain an understanding of their legal responsibilities, how to identify and assess risks, and how to apply safe manual handling techniques, including lifting, carrying, pushing, and pulling. The course also introduces simple risk assessment tools, such as the TILE approach, helping individuals make informed decisions in their day-to-day roles.

Our delivery reflects our core values: clear and concise instruction, honest and supportive guidance, and a commitment to continuous improvement. Through interactive sessions and real-life scenarios, we aim not just to inform, but to inspire positive behavioural change and a stronger safety culture.

By the end of the training, participants will feel confident in their ability to work safely, contribute to team wellbeing, and support a more reliable and consistent approach to manual handling across the organisation.
