We provide risk assessment of manual handling tasks and recommendations for reducing risk.

- the task
- the load
- the working environment
- the individuals involved.
Services
On our manual handling assessment visit we will comprehensively analyse your tasks to identify what factors may be causing risk, and the level of that risk. By observing and recording tasks we can make sound, cost effective recommendations for reducing the risk of injury. The solutions are tailored to your circumstances and arrived at in discussion with you.
Following our report, we can then work with you, if you wish, to intruduce change. This will include manual handling training for your employees to ensure they understand the risks and follow good work practices. Alternatively, you many want to train your own assessors and trainers.
