Manual Handling sessions

Getting your team prepared for safe and healthy manual work.

CUSTOMISED EDUCATION SESSIONS

Get your team prepared for manual work with a customised manual handling session.

We identify your high-risk work tasks and create a job specific presentation for your team, providing them with education on how to safely perform manual tasks.

Our engaging presenters will empower your employees to take control of their own health and safety at work by providing them with the right tools to do so.

HOW it WORKS

STEP 1: Identify your risks

Onsite consultation and job observations

A Healthy Business consultant will visit your workplace, spending time observing your employees carrying out their day-to-day manual tasks, to identify what your specific high-risk manual handling tasks are.

This will include:

  • Taking photos of job tasks to include in our presentation, making it relevant to your people

  • Consulting with your organisation to gain an understanding of the physical demands of the job tasks carried out

  • Consulting with your employees to learn why tasks are done in certain ways

  • Observing tasks to identify any hazards and providing recommendations to reduce them

  • Building rapport with your employees prior to the presentations to maximise engagement

STEP 2: reduce your risks

Customised group presentation
