NEBOSH Certificate in Manual Handling Risk Assessment

This brand-new course has been created by NEBOSH in partnership with top HSE ergonomists to provide a fantastic resource for managers, team leaders and health and safety professionals to properly understand and manage the risks that come from manual handling.

The course focuses on how to assess manual handling operations, rather than on lifting technique for workers, and includes information on how to use the HSE’s manual handling resources.

Recognise, assess and reduce manual handling risks in the workplace.
